There are several problems with using a machine you know to be infected. Even if it seems OK when using a different browser it may well not be. Since you don't know the true nature of the infection you could be compromising the security of anyothing from your GVR login to your online banking. You could be responsible for generating spam, either directly by your PC sending it or indrectly by others acquiring data from your email address book.
