If reinstalling is the only way to survive then how good is linux from windows . Any ways a thanx a lot for hearing to my problem .I ran clamav on my mounted windoes partitions and found two more trojans .so cleaned it all . Regarding my linux box , I am now getting an almost stable connection upload download ratio has improved to 1:16 approx. Didn't find anything specific . BTW can you provide some links from where i can get some know how regarding forensic analysis so that i can at least do the necessary test when machine is attacked again in future . -- Regards Subhodip Biswas GPG key : FAEA34AB Server : pgp.mit.edu http://subhodipbiswas.wordpress.com http:/www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/SubhodipBiswas -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
