I don't put oil in my PC. That may be where you're going wrong.
I don't even use snake oil.
Why would anyone wipe and reformat, unless they've got a particularly nasty virus? I've had one virus in the last three years (it was its first "day out" on the Internet, and AVG didn't know about it). It was removed in ten minutes.
