Wow Bob, that's alot of virus infected files. I got ya beat though! My brother's friend brought his computer over, he said it had started to behave increasingly odd. So, we started Norton and did a scan. 7 hours later, it had found somewhere around 11,700 files infected. Appearantly everyone in his family loves Kazaa... The virus infected music files and picture files, mostly, and his parents did alot of work with pictures (lots of music files too). Needless to say, the harddrive was nearly wiped clean after the deletion of all those files, as they couldn't be repaired. :lol:
Still a running joke with him, along with the time he called me on the phone saying "Hey! My monitor isn't working!" Knowing that most problems are the simple ones, the first thing I say to him before embarking on a 3 hour help call is "Is it plugged in?" "Yup!" It took a long time of failed trials in attempts to make it work... Three days later, he gets it to work. He calls me and tells me, "Yeah, the monitor was unplugged!" :help:
