Everyday
more and more viruses are released. Anyone who works with or
even owns computer knows this. Data Recovery AID keeps updated daily on
new virus attacks and how to clean and repair files that have been damaged
or corrupted. If you feel your hard drive may have been attacked
by a virus contact us. We have
an excellent recovery rate 90% (varies weekly) for
virus data recovery situations.
Here are a few examples of the different virus types.
• Boot Sector Virus: Also sometimes called boot
record infectors, system viruses, or boot viruses, these programs attack
the boot program that is stored on every bootable floppy disk or hard
disk. This code is executed by the system when the PC is started up,
making it a juicy target for virus writers: by installing themselves
here they guarantee that their code will be executed whenever the system
is started up, giving them full control over the system to do what they
wish. They are spread most commonly through infected bootable floppy
disks. and sometimes cause drive failure, sector errors and data loss.
• File Infectors: These viruses also call Worms
directly attack and modify program files, which are usually .EXE or
.COM files. When the program is run, the virus executes and does whatever
it wants to do. Usually it loads itself into memory and waits for a
trigger to find and infect other program files. These viruses are commonly
spread through infected floppy disks, over networks, and over the Internet.
Its very common for these virus attacks to cause damage or corrupt data
even overwriting your important data.
• Macro Viruses: The newest type of virus, these
clever programs make use of the built-in programming languages in popular
programs such as Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel. These programs
allow users to create programs that automate tasks, called macros. As
the macro languages have become more powerful, virus writers have created
malevolent macros that, when opened unwittingly, duplicate themselves
into other documents and spread just like a conventional virus would.
