Me, I'd boot from a Linux live cd remaster with an updated ClamAV, run a Win AV program in wine, or put the HD into another computer as nonboot disk and scan it with an installed and updated AV program after booting the second computer. Because the infected drive is not accessed on boot in this situation, the virus should be easier to eliminate.

Good luck.

**** (crap) no - forgot about running in safe mode - doh. Normally I would just pull the drive and toss in another - problem is that I'm running a RAID - have 4 drives here.


I had planned on reformatting - just not yet. Wanting to build the new server to transfer media stuff over - and then go with a single drive and a dual boot with x64 and Linux.

I got to much stuff going on to have to deal with this mess right now -
