RE: who here use ubuntu?

I'm having a hard time understanding what this thread is about
win7holic - you want use a SARDU usb (or is it a DVD?) to clean your friends PC, but since your friend uses a USB modem that you can't find the drivers for, you can't update the definitions for the antivirus applications you have on the USB?

no..
itr true.. my friend use modem USB for connect internet.. then..
before use kav resc disc for example.. need to update database.. then, how to do that..?
my friend have USB modem.. plug and play.. it can or not.. work on kave resc disc or other to connect internet..??

you need to reload a newer version of kav resc disc so that you have the latest update and then burn it on a cd; kav rescue disk is no AV replacement.

When the kav is on, the use won't be able to connect to the internet; it scans before the OS can start so that no rootkit or other malware can start.

What?? you can't update a rescue disk's database.

Well having some research and the result was this.

RE: who here use ubuntu?

It might not work. Kaspersky Rescue Disk is based on Linux and the drivers needed might not be available. Download the latest version of Kaspersky rescue disk (the database in that ISO is about 1 month old) and use the suggestion provided by James above (nice find).

You can also use Dr.Web Live CD that was updated recently (yesterday).

Another thing you could do is take his desktop to your home and use your own Internet connection.

That's a nice idea bogdan, if his friend will allow to bring the desktop.

I tested the tool (Kaspersky Rescue Disk Updater TEN.2) James recommended and the sript returned an error: "!! Bootsector Missing !!"

To fix it open diskupdt.cmd with a text editor (Notepad works too)

Find (lines 78, 79):

if not exist .\kavrescue\boot\grub\grub_eltorito goto bs
.\tools\mkisofs -R -J -joliet-long -o kav_rescue_2010.iso -b boot/grub/grub_eltorito -c boot\boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-info-table -V "Kaspersky Rescue Disk" -boot-load-size 4 kavrescue

Replace the lines above with:

if not exist .\kavrescue\boot\grub\i386-pc\eltorito.img goto bs
.\tools\mkisofs -R -J -joliet-long -o kav_rescue_2010.iso -b boot/grub/i386-pc/eltorito.img -c boot\boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-info-table -V "Kaspersky Rescue Disk" -boot-load-size 4 kavrescue

Save the file (make sure you use the same *.cmd extension)
