What would be the effects of transitioning to a new World-Wide Internet Network?

Imagine an intelligent virus that could back up portions of its code on every device connected to the internet. No matter how many times you try and delete the virus, it is able to reconstruct itself from the bits of data it saves on different devices.

If such a virus made it dangerous/risky to use the internet (as we know it today) and we were forced to create a new world-wide network, what would be the effects of such a transition? Would data be lost, since any saved data contains bits of this virus? How long would it take for such a transition to take place?
