Welcome :)

Depends on the AntiVirus.
In some if you boot into SafeMode then run the scan it will delete them.

Otherwise, boot into Safemode and show Hidden/System files and you should beable to see & access the restore folder.

Anotherway would be to disable System Restore, which should delete the folder.
Goto System Properties>Performance>File System>Trobleshooting>Disable System Restore

Easiest and best way?
Boot using the Startup Disc, choose minimal boot, and do it from clean DOS.
from the C:\WINDOWS> prompt type cd \ and press enter. From the C:\> prompt type deltree _restore and press enter. It's gone.
