[QUOTE="brambedkar59, post: 976341, member: 61084"] This was back when I was totally new to computer (more than ~13-14 years), my big bro used to move files to/from USB onto PC. Let's just say our PC was choke full of worms/virus. We had "VirusBuster" installed but never updated it cause no internet connection plus didn't knew that we had to update it. I didn't know what a installer was back then. So before installing windows again we copied shortcut files on Desktop & sent them to burn to CD thinking I was backing up the programs. [/QUOTE]
