cih virus

[Fredrik Kuivinen <eg98frku@forsmark.uu.se>]

Hello

I have got the cih virus on one of my computers. The cih virus is quite
nasty first it overwrites the first mb of every hd you have installed and
then it flashes your bios with invalid code. So it's quite impossible to
boot an os. But I got this idea. Would it be possible to boot with an
other bios that contains the etherboot code from a network card? Or does
the etherboot code use the bios on the motherboard when it boots?

The motherboard in the computer I am talking about is of the type of
motherboards where you can't remove the bios.
