[EMAIL PROTECTED] a écrit : Date: Sat, 11 May 2002 17:03:53 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: killmbr=killmb? The Libretto 100CT Recovery/Backup boot diskette which comes with the Lib has a file in the BIN subdirectory labeled killmb.com. After copying this floppy to a directory on my desktop HDD for safekeeping, then running NAV, Norton reports this file as the virus KillMBR.g and suggests quarantine or deletion. Norton then blocked my attempt at copying this file from the floppy to the HDD, again identifying it as the killmbr.g virus. I am assuming this is a mistake of NAV; can anyone confirm from their copy of the Lib boot diskette that a file called A:\BIN\killmb.com exists? There is also a file called killhd in the same directory - anyone know what these do, if they're not virii? Thanks. Not a mistake. The MBR is a vital part of your system. All anti-virus search for programs that could make a damage in the MBR. The name of this one is quite explicit ! ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ - Archives ---TO UNSUBSCRIBE--- Reply to any of the list messages.

Lee, Both the killmb.com and killhd.com are programs used by the Libretto 100CT Configuration Builder CD, and for that matter most the Configuration Builder CDS for most other models of Toshiba notebook. A number of virus programs will falsely identify them as virus(s), but they are not. They are used to prep the system/hard drive before re-installing the factory configuration from the CD.
