Burn your most important files and trance songs onto CD's as data files, and then run a v-scan like , reformat, destroy the HDD with acids, relocate your house, change your name, buy an entirely new PC, and put your files back on there.
Or, you could just back up your files on CD's and then run the v-scan. |

Id say your first mistake was using Symantec ;)
I agree. Archive all important files off your computer and reinstall. |
