Well if I had a virus I would simply take my boot cd that I made to for recovery from a bad virus and let it run on boot up and clean the system But if do to a HD Failure and I had to re-install the OS I would simply re-install from my restore CD which came with my system, yes I know that not all systems come with a restore CD those probably have a restore partition on the hard drive that is hidden so that you can restore your system. NEVER TURN OFF YOUR AUTOMATIC UPDATES If you do your system is vulnerable to attacks more than if the updates are there, some of the updates fix vulnerabilities so if you turn them off your leaving holes in your system for attacks. Ohh but then then I remember your opting for a pirated copy,

Piracy is bad and illegal, it does not help the software development industry, nowdays technologies are more advance its because of R&D budget of every software company to research and developed new products, Imagine if Software companies loose money because of piracy?... technologies wont advance. Dont buy/download pirated softwares, else prefer Open Source and free software as an alternative, if you want free OS go with Linux.

After All Why Should We Buy The Operating System By Paying Lots Of Money To Them. Its Wrong tht WE Should not Download Or borrow from friends . But WE Cant Do It Just Simply Mate . If We Want to Buy tht Os It May Take Many Many Years To See tht SOftware Or To Get it And Install . So i Just Download The Best Os Which Is Recommended And i Will Get tht
