Re: Spyware Infection
Hi,
It seems that you installed the wrong package for recovery console. Media Center edition is based on XP Pro.
Please follow the steps below to remove recovery console. Follow the instructions on my previous post again and this time, make sure you download the XP Pro package.
This file must be present - C:\Boot.bak.
It is a backup of the machine's previous Boot.ini. Do not proceed if it's not present
1) Right click on current copy of C:\Boot.ini & select 'Properties'. Then remove the file's 'Read-Only' attibute
2) Rename C:\Boot.ini to C:\Boot.old (Do not delete it)
3) Rename C:\Boot.bak to C:\Boot.ini
4) Right click on the new C:\Boot.ini & select 'Properties'. Then make the file 'Read-Only'
5) Reboot the machine. You will note that the Recovery Console is no longer an option on the Boot Menu
6) Delete the folder - C:\CmdCons
7) Delete C:\Boot.old
WARNING - Failure to strictly adhere to the above instructions may result in an unbootable machine.
