It’s a 9 yo Dell that won’t take more than 500 megs.
The C: drive has only software on it except for mail.
All other files are on another, external, drive which I turned off immediately on finding the virus.

If all else fails, a Knoppix Live CD and a USB thumb drive should be enough to restore use of the hardware as an FR/mail reader. It's a cheap solution. Under $20 including the cost of a CD and a new USB thumb drive.

It may be time to junk it and replace it, since your data is on a separate disk.
Tigerdirect.com has many desktop and laptop computers at relatively cheap prices.
If you just do email and FR, you might look at some of their older models or refurbs.
