    Glad you got it all sorted out.... Remember though, had you imaged your drive, your problem could have been resolved with a simple restore and would have saved you some $$$...

    To Any that read this thanx for all the replies,JACEE,i did as you said and sovar it seems the virus is gone,the bad thing is it was quarantined by the latest Avast,and those file were then picked up with Viper(viper was suggested by threat-expert)In the end Viper removed all infected files,which then cleaned out the external completely,after a external format,it clean.So if you get a virus that copies everything you have on your local drive use Viper,the link is supplied by one of the guys earlier in the thread,it worked....at a price
    Glad to hear that you got it sorted with the help of Avast and Viper.

    Thanx,but if i used that hitman pro first i never had to loose anything,i tried it on a buds pc which had the virus too (he got it of my external when copying files-before the hole loosing all data) and it ran a sort of online scan and found the virus and deleted it without him having to change or loose anything,so now my anti-virus is viper and i constantly run the hitman pro,even though its just for 30 day trails
