76,000 viruses.... how likely?

H_TeXMeX_H:
Format HDD and install Linux or BSD ... that's the ONLY way to solve this problem.

WMD:
Housecall is by Trend Micro, a company that I usually have good things to say about.  I'm guessing there's a bug in the software, or these files are hiding themselves in the directories used for the "hidden temporary files" (see the Operating Systems forum about that).

sean:
I have a suggestion for the original poster. Rather than play around re-installing windows or linux, why don't you mothball your m$ porn machine and buy a Mac?
You will have a superior computer and you won't have to worry about viruses anymore.

Anyway w/ that many viruses on your machine, I'm guessing a re-format may be a little over your head technically!

Or, if he doesn't want to shell out for a mac, he could install a GNU/Linux distribution like Ubuntu.
