    Have a hard disk infected with the Win32.Nimnul trojan so installed a new HDD and started over again. Infected drive has a large number of photos I want to recover so should I just start the drive in Safe Mode and copy the files I want and then bin it?

    Thanks

    If you are running the infected drive as a slave, it could still infect your new HDD. So I would suggest that we first put the infected drive back in the system and run these instructions on it:
