Will new harddrive get rid of virus?
I want to know that if I were to just replace the hd and reload the OS and other programs on a brand new hd, will that remove the virus I have (Trojan SPM/LX)? Is that where the trojan would be? Hiding somewhere on the hd? I have read that just because Malwarebytes may have removed the initial threat, there could be "backdoors" left open for hackers to get into my computer and use it without me even knowing it. I haven't tried getting rid of the TrojanSPM/LX yet because I am trying to see if it is worth my time to try, and then someone can still have access to my pc. What is my best course of action in getting rid of this virus, and then keep it from returning?? Any help or info is greatly appreciated!
