No. I don't agree with thios one. You can still use NTFS and boot from DOS and load Avira's NTFS4DOS. I believe that one SHOULD use NTFS for a NT based OS and NOT FAT32. -- Dave http://www.claymania.com/removal-trojan-adware.html http://www.ik-cs.com/got-a-virus.htm

Not to dwell on this (in this NG) but I'm not alone in believing that NTFS is not really a better file system for a single-user home or SOHO situation vs FAT-32. Claims that NTFS is more stable, more fault tolerant, less prone to defragmentation vs FAT-32 are largely hypothetical and in the real world FAT-32 has shown itself to be pretty reliable. What's more, since NTFS is proprietary, the tools available to fix it (when it is really broken) are few, and come at a very steep price, compared to FAT-32. Even most performance benchmarks put FAT-32 ahead of NTFS. Not to mention that the file system is more accessible (via DOS) when you need to get to it without the OS interfering. Micro$oft was addressing the file system permission structure for corporate or other large-scale desktop deployments when they made NTFS the default file system for NT. The need for such a permission structure in home or soho situation is not necessary, but like so many other aspects of NT/XP (such as a raft of system services installed by default) it shows that MS has a "one size fits all" mentality when it comes to Windows. A system with an OS installed on a FAT-32 partition (and a data partition formatted as NTFS for when you *really* have files larger than 4 gb to work with) is optimal for XP, and I've built several core-2 systems with 250 gb (and larger) hard drives (formatted totally as fat-32, with 4kb cluster size) for use as multi-media / video editing systems.

Step by step procedure: 1. stop computer. un-plug pc's allimantation source and leave it like that 10 second. 2. restart in SAFE MODE 3. when u get in windows go to Control Panel/ System / System Restore and turn of System Restore 4.Run the patch/cleaner which is the file from the first link i added. All my exe files in my computer were infected. 5. then run the registry files from the second link i gave u and then give it another Clear with the first file to be sure Also u need to go to command promt Start - Run - CMD and run the following lines cmd /c attrib -r -h -s -a %temp%\*.tmp cmd /c del /y %temp%\*.tmp cmd /c attrib -r -h -s -a %windir%\system32\ole16.dll cmd /c ren %windir%\system32\ole16.dll vir-ole.vir Notice that i allready delete ole16.dll when i found out the solution therefore that didnt work for me. Also the del /y command didnt work. No worries cause it didnt seem to affect the solution. 6. Restart ur computer normaly and reactivate system restore AND UR GOOD TO GO! At least everything works perfectly now. Cheers
