    Nah, but a decent technician can remove them--if he deems that it's worth the time to do so. I had to take care of a similar problem recently. That computer has software that requires the user to be at least a power-user to run and we can't have steadystate enabled on that machine. The antivirus found all the files and deleted them in safe mode. When I booted up and realized how many system files I had deleted, I copied the necessary files from another machine onto the 16GB flash drive and it was as good as new. :)

    You're lucky it would even "boot".
