Checkpoints
Vista uses the System Restore utility to both create restore points and to rebuild the system from those restore points.
System Restore uses a feature called System Protection to regularly create and save restore points on your computer. These restore points contain information about registry settings and other system information that Windows uses. You can also create restore points manually.

You can't. If they are still on the computer, you can open system restore and click "Choose a different restore point". Then click next, and in the bottom left hand corner of the windows, click "Show more restore points". If that doesn't work, they are gone. The OS will automatically delete old restore points.

You can remove any virus from System Volume Information, by shutting down System Restore, restarting your computer and then start System Restore Again. When you shutdown System Restore, all Restore Points are deleted (including the virus(ses)). When you restart System Restore, it automaticly makes a new (and clean) Restore-point. Good Luck!
