>I'm helping to remove an infection from a fellow's computer. I have removed two root kits and forteen trojans, but one MBR virus was lurking on the HD and I found it this morning. I don't know what it is called besides the very special names I have given it. The MBR virus will not let me reformat. Any ideas for complete removal of the thing?

can you run fdisk from a cd after changing the boot order in bios to reboot from CD?

Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy

Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.

-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
- Ben Franklin

Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
