Bloodhound.MBR infection

Guest

Start up boot frequently infects with this virus and Norton does not get it
out. Some one please help. I keep restarting People Pc and it keeps popping
up to get rid of malicious software. Also People pc folders are infected.

Basically "Bloodhound" is a Heuristic detection and for some freason NAV is causing this to
be detected. As shown above, there are reasons for False Positive declarations as this
indicates a Heuristics Boot Sector Infector.

Is this system using FAT32 or NTFS ?

You also stated... "Also People pc folders are infected" with what ?
What does NAV find and what is the Fully qualified name and paths to the infected files ?
