Er, are you saying the microcontroller on the DVD drive's circuit board
is infected?  (As opposed to the infected component being on the
motherboard, or on a DVD *disc*, or...)

How did you determine this?

As another poster suggested,
"jon recovery system" appears to originate from the httpd in D-Link
firmware for router appliances.

If you remove all NICs from the "infected PC",
do the symptoms go away?
