    Thanks Bill I've rum MBAR and MBRCheck. A little odd that MBAR still seems to be Beta with warnings of using at your own risk.

    Some programs seem to be in perpetual beta. Maybe just an easy way to say we can't guarantee it won't screw up :)

    Windows 8 with secure boot blocks any such attacks to the mbr, only allowing digitally signed code from windows 8 to run.

    Of course, that can be bypassed as well.
