This has to be a virus...but so far AVG has not found anything. Which is strange. Strange because I can never remember it not finding something on the Pre-last Christmas edition. Things are just not the same since the new program was installed. I am on the Free edition, but the old one was so good. Is the new one up to that standard?

With Disk Monitor, The disc is showing Write hundreds...nay, thousands of times - to totally random? sectors. Every so often there will be a row of Reads, but then back to write. Smells of summit norty I think.

Does this ring any bells? If I don't find a virus, it's more work stripping this disc again while I could be experiencing the pleasure of learning Vista :

One has decided to dedicate one of the H-Drives to Linux...it is just possible I may be asking some more dumb questions.
