Hello everybody. I was surfing on the internet when ESET NOD32 4 found a trojan in my netbook.
The notification on NOD32 says this:

Object:
MBR sectro of the 0. physical disk

Threat:
Win32/Olmarik.AJL trojan

What could I do?

I've already run defogger. I would like also to post a log with dds.scr but I run it 4 times and each times my netbook stops working and I have to shut it off by the power switch.
Please help.

Hi. I asked someone and I found out how to remove/disinfect the trojan. I installed the 30 days trial versione of kaspersky antivirus and it found this trojan and other 7(!!!) removing all of them.

It took a few hours to run a complete scan of the notebook but now it's ok.

For the moderators....
I don't know how to close this topic, but you can mark it as solved.

Thanks

It appears that this issue is resolved, therefore I am closing the topic. If that is not the case and you need or wish to continue with this topic, please send me or any Moderator a Personal Message (PM) that you would like this topic re-opened.
