Once you are certain- positive- you have a clean machine, either by removing the bugs, or a clean reinstall on a formatted drive, consider using a spare hard drive to make a mirror copy ( clone ) of your system. Most drive makers offer free drive-to-drive copy software on their sites, or Norton Ghost or xxcopy ( free ) can be used. You then remove the spare, date it, and set aside to swap out in an emergency.
