:mad What a fucking nightmare.......

I just had the worst spyware/virus attack ever

It has taken 48 hours and 3 reformats to get rid of it, this nightmare created some sort of invisable partition of 2mb that kept the virus alive even through reformats and op system reinstalls.

It then installs a load of spyware/malware - trojans, worms, diallers etc

At one point I had over 400 proccesses running!

I think it was more of an attack than a normal virus.

Im doing some research to see if I can find anythig out about it but no luck so far.

Anyway if anyone has been trying to get hold of me this is why I havnt got back to you.

that sounds really awful. i haven't heard about anything like that before. i just wonder how it could autostart itself, after you had your os-partition reformatted. did it write something into the master boot record to start itself?
