Good idea. I’ll use it as a last resort.

Get a Knoppix Live CD. You should be able to boot it and have access to your Windows disk without concern about the virus being able to run. You can use the "find" utility to locate the copy of the virus file to delete it. There are text editors as well so you can fix up any "INI" files that have been compromised. That's probably a safe approach than exposing another windows machine to the infected disk contents via an external USB connection.
