Hi Experts,
I'm an advanced PC user and can't believe I got a virus. First in years. Embarrassing, but there you go.
Anyway, it's Antivirus System Pro, and it's blocking many of my EXEs including Malwarebyte's Anti-Malware, so that's not working. \
The bit of reading I've done here suggests to me a fair amount of work ahead of me to clean this up (hours of time). So, I'm over due for a full reformat anyways, and thought I'd just do that instead, as I've another PC (uninfected) I can work on.
My question:
1) Will a reformat of my PC (HP Desktop running Vista Ultimate) completely remove this annoying virus?
Thanks in advance,
Dave
