Hello. I had problems with my PC and unwanted software several times so far, and I never succeeded in wiping all the crap from my system completely. I always had a feeling that something left on my hard drive so I always did complete format after long fight. I dont believe that there is software that can completely remove all trails from the system. Somebody is sharing my opinion? Thanks for your time.

I agree with you. I am always keeping my Back-up at hand. Youll never know. It is much easier to me to wait 2 or 3 minutes for Acronis to complete the operation. I cant hold on without getting nervous when I need to mess around with HiJack or Registry editor and reboot the system several times. Thats real pain in the ass. Besides that, I am a true skeptic if you ask me. I think you must format the drive in order to completely remove the infection.
