[QUOTE="StriderHunterX, post: 402269, member: 33041"] Ever since I bought my laptop,I have never needed to format. I have been securing it since the beginning(even more since I found MT)...If it croaks,it's gonna be because of hardware issues. That said....I'm a fan of the "F11" methods.I call it the Bazooka Blow Up or taking the "Hammer" to it.I feel I have no time to deal with insane infections(Although,I want and love to learn for when the event arises(Like a PC or server that for any reason,cannot be formatted...I have found some of those cases lately) Nice list,overall. In this day and age,you must know someone that works pretty closely with computers.Turn to them when you need a copy of any version of Windows...;) [/QUOTE]
