My girlfriend got the security systems virus on her laptop, so I did what I usually do to any computer that is infected beyond repair, I copy the pictures, documents, music and videos to an external hard drive and re install the operating system, which involves deleting the current hard drive partition and creating a new partition. Now, the computer was clean and brand new running, as it usually is when you reinstall the OS, however after connecting it to the internet, the virus appeared again!!
How is this possible? Does this virus somehow hide in the hardware? Or in the network? We didn't click on anything, the virus just reappeared on a brand new hard drive.
Anybody know anything about this?
