To make a long story short i had a virus on my computer before and new that norton didnt get rid of the whole thing but was enough for my computer to run so-so, now i try the new bitdefender 9 and what happens when i wake up the next morning!?!?!? it found some virus and deleted some of them but not all but i hear my hd just runing for no reason and find out that it must of made the virus mad because now i only got a little bit of space left. I put it in safe mode and ran norton after having to del some things cause i guess if the hd full then it wont run and it works the first time finding 1995 virus.... i removed them and when i boot back in regular mode the same thing happens. I think its one of them viruses that has to be hooked to the internet to spread cause if i go into safe mode with networking then it does the same thing as regular mode.... CAN ANYONE HELP ME WITH THIS??? AND NO BITDEFENDER DONT COME UP IN SAFE MODE AT ALL

use dban (http://dban.sourceforge.net/) to wipe your hdd, then reinstall your os
