| Daz bootloader i have a feeling this popular win bypass can be a major botnet.
The application itself injects a SLIC (System Licensed Internal Code) into your system before Windows boots; this is what fools Windows into thinking it's genuine.
can someone explain how that works in the first place? what is the application doing? what is it modifying exactly. |

Read this on HAL:
»en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_abstraction
Understand HAL instead of API. Once you start to read a little it may help you google certain questions you have.
As the loader manufacturer has a forum, you may want to ask them, as there are certain protocols the forum and moderators here may question?

Put a firewall between the machine that is running this and the internet and check outbound connections.

Or run a packet sniffer.
Anything that can hook into the hardware at that level could certainly be used to hijack computers into a botnet. It's comparable to the TDL-rootkit protected malware that made the rounds last year, some of which used custom boot sectors. One of the final things I do before returning a machine that was rooted, if the owner didn't want to format, is 'play with it' for a day or so on my [hardware-firewalled] home network while I sniff packets. Machines that look clean aren't always as clean as they look. |

I'm guessing that you have been attempting a clean install of a pirated OS and repeatedly finding it infected.

If you had an OEM original and it got infected you really need the original key and possible the correct install CD/DVD.
The shop where you bought it from could provide that.
Failing all this i would recommend you instal a free copy of one of many Linux CD's/DVD's.
I'm sure it's against BBR policy to advise any further.
