    boot from a linux cd w/ a antivirus installed and scan drive. I don't know.

    What do you want? Sometimes a virus is so heavily scattered in your drive that the only thing to do is to reformat. If you don't want to have it done, get the BJ guy to do it *evil grin*

    Of course, a virus scattered throughout the HD is no problem until it gets run, accidently or otherwise. Otherwise if it's just dormant, it's nothing more than clutter like any other bit of junk left behind from an application that doesn't uninstall fully or something else Some people might want inactive viruses on their HD for one reason or another

    Well AVG, SpyBot, AdAware, and Yahoo! Toolbar are saying my computer's all better now (other than my Display Property tabs still not showing). Of course every time I download PORN I have to scan it again 'cause PORN is evil, but whatever.
