Viruses... what to do...
fohfoh:
Hmm... been busy. Tried fixing MBR, we'll see what comes out of it. (Non-legit CD, so we'll see if it worked)
Kapersky... is fucking nuts. (Not in a good way.) I shall share my experience.

Reformat and reinstall... virus magically disappears.

Concur. Will be doing that tonight or near weekend. MBR Fixing failed. I'm still churning out GB upon GB of error reports.
Just gotta back up shit and then wipe it.
Now... do I bother trying to do factory install or win 7 in BRAND NEW HDD (leaning on the latter) :P

Do a nice full install of win7 ultimate. Screw this factory cd or what ever they gave you. If this new drive is big and you want to use it to store stuff with I'd do the OS install on the small HDD. Much easier to just reformat and install and not have to worry about backingup data. This is why I never save any of my files on the HDD that contains the OS.
fohfoh:
Installing win 7 requires more time. Why? I will dual boot if I do so. Ubuntu/7 combo w/ Fat32 centre for shared files.
I haven't done it in a while though. I forget how to set up partitions. xD
Will have to look it up and have about 3+ hours to do this. (Mainly due to updates and stuff)
