Local Security Authority Subsystem Service. No virus lol. Viruses often name themselves after Windows processes so you don't terminate them.

You need to get XP repaired with a CD, you don't access the BIOS through Windows, mash F2, F8 or delete as soon as you turn on your computer until you get a screen with lots of options on it then modify the Boot Order to put the DVD drive first.
