sorry for the delay. I reformatted. havent had the same problems but want to make sure completely fixed. let me know what else I need to do, if anything.

Hi,

if you reformatted nothing should have survived. I can still check you logs if you want, but I don't think that the malware could come back. Are you having any symptoms right now? Popups? Redirects? etc...

regards myrti
