Remove all external/removeable media and boot to your Windows 7 DVD, choose Repair Your Computer, Next, Command Prompt, then type in the following commands:
diskpart
select disk 0
clean
create partition primary
select partition 1
format fs=ntfs
clean
exit
Then boot to your Windows 7 DVD again to reinstall. This should wipe out what was on your disk allow you to install your legitimate Windows 7 without worrying about the pre-existing pirated/malware version.
