Hey guys, I have a problem.
My father's laptop has been bombarded with spyware. I've tried every cleaner from SPybot to Adaware-SE and none of them are working. I'm afraid it is too late for any software to fight the Spyware and I'm looking into the possibility of reformatting the hard drive.
The problem is the laptop was purchased in Feb 2005 and my dad does not have the original Windows CD. Any possible way of just reformatting without the disc? Or do you guys know any other way I can remove the spyware? I'm willing to go to the extremes since this laptop does not have any important files on it.
Thanks.
