Sorry, I misunderstood what the Category "Chatter" was for?

Anyway, my pc is toast and needs reformatted.



>>Hi All,
>>
>>My home pc (Gateway Win98 2nd OS) has been hit by the w32.hllw.acebo.
>>
>>I've researched this virus and followed the steps to cure my pc but it seems to have corrupted an OS file, (mprexe.exe).
>>
>>I copied this file from another pc, same OS, but it still will not boot normally.
>>
>>I can boot to safe mode, which is how I ran Norton and found the virus file mscf.exe and deleted it. Unfortunately this appears to have too late to keep it from screwing my pc up royally.
>>
>>Anyone have any ideas where to go now. I really didn't want to reinstall the OS but it's starting to look like that's the last option.
>>
>>TIA

>Jim, I really think this question is for other forums. Or even better, see what companies like Symantec and McAfee have to say about it. Try this one:
