as seen here: http://board.acmlm.org/thread.php?id=7136 , I had a little brush with a hacker in windows (yeah yeah =P) anyway, I've been in ubuntu for now, until I can think of step 2. I've backed up all my necessary files, so I'm ready to do a reinstall, but I'd really rather not.
So I'll just run a windows virus scan from linux and then beef up my security (offline). But I don't know any programs that will do that. |

Try clamav. It's a virus scanner for email servers but it can scan local disks, too. Also, it's free. Only problem is you probably have to compile it. :p | |||

Compile? pfft, I can handle compiling. Just... I hate installing compilers T_T (which I'll have to do because I'm on a fresh-ish install).
Anyway found some binaries here, included are links to the .deb packages I'd have to use for Ubuntu. Tanks for de info yo. |

The RIP LiveCD contains ClamAV, also somewhere on RIP (web site or CD-ROM, I forget which) there's instructions on updating it before the scan.
In ubuntu, you might just be able to type "sudo apt-get install clamav" and be on your way. |

the apt-get worked. and man, scanning for viruses takes foreeeever doing it that way, yeesh. There was a worm in opera, but that was most likely unrelated (0 vulnerabilities in opera my ass). other than that, all was well. |
