My wife and I have gotten infected within a couple of days with the same malware and we use our computers completely separately. Very strange! I'll post separate threads. For my xp I followed microsoft site to remove it using AdwareCleaner (http://malwaretips.com/blogs/remove-...-search-virus/) and it removed more than expected. After the reboot I had the following message "NTLDR is missing - press Ctrl+alt+del". I could not get beyond this so I booted to the operating system cd and was given the choice of reinstalling the system (destructive - loose everything) or if there was enough space on the hd format a partition (non-destructive). Expressions in parenthesis are from the description. I dont think I have a choice here but would like to have your opinion before proceeding. Thanks in advance...
