It probably does not need saying but I would use a non infected computer to d/l and hold the restored files until such time as you are certain all traces of crypto are purged.

Glad to hear all is well. 2Mb is just big enough to be annoying if one thinks about it, but negligible for modern HDD.

I am probably not the only one that finds it irritating that Sue does not actually list all the KBs in her Patch Watch, seems like it would be a simple thing to do. But Since I am still running XP I have nothing to worry about now:rolleyes:

I like that freshly booted Windows smell in the morning:D

I also diconnect the AC power to the computer and router at night (except for scan nights) w/ a remote surgeprotector. One less time space for a lightening strike to take out my equipment and Windows always likes to be rebooted.

Just a thought (ouch) but could that empty space be for alignment purposes or is that for HDDs only??

It is affecting other things on my laptop
Very hard to change physical things as they usually are all part of the motherboard
