I have been asked to create a program that scans for a virus,detects the
virus and removes it,it also has to scan the boot sector.I am very new to
programming so this is a big task for me especially that i cannot find
anything of any use to me, i am a beginner of java and c++ could anybody
tell me how to attempt this or provive some information to me.

Are you serious?

No offense, but why don't you start out with something more adequate for
your skill. And I'm curious who assigns a task like this to somebody who
has no clue about programming or software development in general.

On top of that, this newsgroups is dedicated to the C++ programming
language. It's not its purpose to discuss how virus scanner work.

A nice understatement
I am very new to car mechanics and engine management in general. I have
been asked to work for Ferrari to tune the engine to make sure
Michael Schumacher can win the next Formula One championship also.


My advice: Buy such a virus scanner. It will cost much less and work much
better then everything you can comeup with in the next 2 years.
