I, Zylstra555, have managed to get, A VIRUS!
And this time, its not just a sample of one (like what you find on the Win 3.0 disks) ITS A REAL ONE!
I need to remove it.
Virus has infected Master Boot Partition!
I don't know what to do! My boot disk virus scanner cannot remove it!
Is there a way to make another master boot record without loosing data?
(I have Avast. I believe the virus got on during boot of floppy)
Where do I start?
McAfee/Dr. Solomons boot disk cant remove it.
(Viruses remind me of the DVD cover of "Stephen Kings, IT" with that ugly clown with the disgusting hands and claws)
I do not want to format, or loose any data!
(I think this may be the NYB virus, but possible something else)
Symptoms:
Windows freezes at start (except safe mode)
Windows warns about virus in boot record
Computer EXTREMELY slow
Avast scans WAY to slow in safe mode. Does not seem to get far before freezing.
