Rob, Sounds dumb but try ext3grep /dev/sdb1 --dump-names |grep 'vdi'
Sorry to hear of your Avast woes! Did the VDI contain a Windows Partition that was infected?

Avast for Ubuntu deleted a virtual box vdi file. The vdi is the harddrive for an os within viertual box. It was located in my home folder under /.VirtualBox/HardDisks/ The way I want to unerase the file I think is: ext3grep --dump-names /dev/sdb1 | grep 'vdi' I would rather only have it look under the folder /.VirtualBox and have it restore to an already formated volume. What am I not getting here?
