AV Software
Yes, I have done a search on this BBS and seen whats been said :D
My parents machine is sh@gged, looks like boot sector virus but then again it could still be a H/W fault. Its been a while since I was in IT doing this sort of stuff on a daily basis. I am looking for someone who can recommend any good AV program WITH the ability to make a bootable floppy disk to check this PC. I have McAffee, but for some reason it cannot read the boot sector. I have tried fdisk /mbr which ran ok, but on reboot problems still there. TIA for any help. Buck |
a great free AV with a boot time scan is Avast. Updates are automatic and free, runs as a screensaver if you want ... check it out here.
