Re: msn virus

cherokee, you can probably save teh data yourself.

Download teh Ubuntu CD from teh link I posted, burn the disk and boot your PC with it. Unless teh HD is broken physically(i.e. won't spin up) or the partition table is borked (although even this is fixable if you really know what your doing) your data is safe.

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES LET ANYONE FORMAT THE HARD DISK UNTILL YOU HAVE LET ME HAVE A GO AT IT.

A lot of these computer shops/etc have very little clue in stuff like this. I have rescued loads of data from properly messed up disks before now.
