Hi Clayton,Tough break. Nasty virus!I recommend that you e-mail PMDG support on this one. I am sure they will help you out privately.Georgehttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/betaimg.jpg

thanks for thaton another note,do you think the intermittent reboots are because of this virus?i have run many virus scanners and it says it clean,however i still get these reboots.i wont be sending an email for another month or so as i am about to fly overseas to Mumbai for a month.rgds

"do you think the intermittent reboots are because of this virus?"Reboots can be caused by lots of things, Clayton, but according to the various anti-virus software sites, this is one of the Sasser virus' less endearing features ;-)http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcen...moval.tool.htmlGood luck!Cheers.Ian.

Symantec has a small executable that will search all files on your system and provides a report of the existence or non-existence of the worm.Without doing both - there is the strong possibility that you became re-infected after removal of the worm.Good luck!-michael

hi Michaeli have done all that what you have stated.It says it is clean an no virus is found.I don't want to spend hours reformatting and installing if this doesnt solve the problem.
