    I have had repeated and sustained problems featuring none other than the backdoor prorat. I have had my hard drive reformated 4times. You say this virus comes via media downloads, would this be possible from something like Myspace? It's just that before the last format one of the messages my antivirus found prior to locking up on me was "website hijack". Is there a connection? - if so I would inform anyone not to leave comments which certain artists would find offensive due to over sensitivity! I have tried to E-mail the moderator to no avail so as to find out what happened.
