You need to download an anti-virus and install it.
AVG Free edition is a good one to use, as well as Ad-Aware and Spybot: Search and Destroy.
However, installing an anti-virus on an infected system could cause problems with the program running correctly, or correctly identifying the infected file(s).

As for the comment that Macs are virus free, that's not true. Macs can and do get viruses, however most viruses for macs are hard to write and execute, thus, there is a sizable difference between viruses for the PC to Macs. You are safer on a Mac, but not 100%.
