if it really was a virus .. it cant be embedded to your harddrive or anything after you do a total wipe out format.

if the pc hasnt been shutdown for a minute or two the virus can still be hiding in the ram

alot of hard disks where shipped out from china a while back with rootkits planted on them.

just a thought from the paranoid. :3

hmm, are you installing from a pirated copy of XP by any chance?

i would check if it was there straight after a clean install or if it pops up during installation of drivers and anything else you install.

i still have the OS from when i got the PC from the Store.
