HELP MEE

I am trying to fix someone’s computer remotely, there Internet explorer has gone completely slow at loading time. But before that, everytime the computer boots up, Avast says it found an mbr:\PHYSICALDRIVE0 if you try to send it to the chest or delete it it wants to reboot the computer. But it doesn’t get rid of it… I have tried malwarebytes and come up clean, I have tried spybot nothing, I have tried ccleaner, no results, I have tried to download Superantispyware but it won’t load because it’s on a valid win32 application. I’m frustrated and annoyed by this, can anyone help me???

mbr:\PHYSICALDRIVE0 as it says, it is a physical drive aka the hardrive.
Ofcourse you can’t send a hd to the chest :wink:
Have that user run fdisk /fixmbr and than boot the system
It looks like the mbr is corrupted or even more.
