Scan the computer and then scan the portable hard drive.
Reply:if you could have accessed your c:\ drive before you copied back your data, then you've probably got some virus. The best is to take your portable drive to somebody with proper virus protection software, that's been updated and then clean your backups of any threads, you'll have to reformat your c:\ drive as well, else it will only re spawn somewhere else

just for you to know...GET AN ANTI VIRUS !!! its not that dificult...





there quite a few... AVAST/ NOD / KASPERSKY or if you have more money just buy NORTON or McAfee,,,,

OBS.: the virus will not 'flow' back...it will be copied back in a probably inactive state and will infect your computer only when you open the infected file...
