Yea, pull the drive and find someone else's machine with Windows installed on it, and make sure to set your jumpers properly, according to what IDE channel/port you plug it in (primary slave/secondary master or slave, whatever) - and then boot up to that person's copy of Windows and it should show your drive as just another drive. Now run a full virus/spyware scan on your drive.

Hopefully, it should be able to pick up and clean out a lot of crap - and that may let you take the macine back to your computer and boot into safe-mode to try running AV/antispyware again.
