I've searched the net and havent really found any information on them, other
then they infect boot sectors(?). Does anyone have some links or information
on these types of viruses?

There is no virus named "bloodhound", what you have there is probably
a heuristic alert by Norton Antivirus which believes it found a virus
that is unkown to it in your boot sector.

"Bloodhound" is not virus it is the name of Norton AntiVirus'
heuristics. See

for detailed explanation.
