My antivirus program found some viruses, but it could not delete them because they are located in system volume information folder. My friend told me that I have to delete these viruses, but I do not know how, because I cant see this folder. What do you suggest me to do? Should I delete them?

Your friend is right. You should delete it, because your antivirus wont. To delete it go to windows explorer, after that click tools, then folder options, then click view and show hidden files and folders. After this, you will be able to see system volume information folder. Open it and find your viruses (see in antivirus report which ones are) and delete them.
