Basically Downloaded Dodgy File. It started to install.

So i used system restore...
went back a day.
then went into program files and removed what it installed.

would i be safe from it being gone?
or is there somewhere else to remove files from.

since rewiping my comp 2 weeks ago i didnt have antivirus installed. i know im an idiot.
Installing now...

:) so am i safe/if not what to do!

thanks,
