It may be too late for you this time round, but get hold of some Vicks 'First Defence'.
Viruses cannot easily be attacked directly because anything that disrupts the way viruses work is highly likely to disrupt the way the body's cells work.
First Defence 'slimes' the viruses with a gel that makes it impossible for them to attack the body's cells, a bit like putting a muzzle on a dog - it's perfectly healthy but it can't bite. The viruses are flushed out of the body, still coated in slime.
The only trouble is that the gel is only effective while the virus cell count is relatively low, so you have to take it at the first signs of a cold. After a while there are too many virus cells for the gel to do any good.
I've been using it for two years and haven't had a cold. Of course that's only anecdotal, so...
