Try reinstalling Firefox. Before re-installation remove the Firefox profiles and other stuff from ur "Documents and Settings\%user-name%\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox" folder.
 
Actually i just formatted the windows ... so didn't bother to install anti-spywares n all , isn't there any other solution ? Anyone else with a similar problem ?

You've got the W32.USBWorm virus..

Not to worry help is here..

Follow the steps mentioned here and you are good to go..

MIW --- Men in Web: I DNT HATE MOZILLA BUT USE IE OR ELSE

Even my system was affected by this very virus.. Infected after I used my USB stick in a web-cafe.. But my system is completely healed now....

PS: As an afterthought, you could have used an anti-virus to easily block that virus from entering...
