Boot.Malmo How to get rid of?

[nfpk]

Hi!
I´ve got Boot.Malmo virus on a computer running Win 98.
I tried to fix it with rescue discs made on a fresh win 98 computer Norton AV 2003. But i destoyed the whole disc. Then I formatted the disc, and run the manufactourers recovery disc and made everything ok. At last I installed Norton 2003 and scanned the computer. The virus was still there!!!!! How do I get rid of the virus??????

Hi!
I found out a much better way.
Boot the computer with Dos disc 1
Go to the DOS prompt
fdisk /mbr
And the virus is gone.
And the computer works fine, no need for any new installation.

nfpk that really works even on Xp machines you can either use the 98 startup disk like he described or use the XP bootable CD and use fixboot command.
My problem however is Boot.malmo on a flask disk or what others call a memory stick.
