[QUOTE="Beatles4Life, post: 1545630, member: 3126"] [color="#660099"][FONT="Georgia"]Thank you both for your replies, chscag and dtravis7. With regards to Disk Maker (formerly Lion Disk Maker), I used version 3, which (as far as I know) is the most recent version. Disk Maker kept giving me error messages regarding erasing the disk. Initially, I thought it was just an issue of having the USB stick in the wrong file writing format, but it seems to be something else. The error code in question was -10006. I used the Terminal method that involves showing hidden files. At first I though it was because I was in my normal account instead of the administration account, so I logged out and tried it again from administration mode. I'll have to reread the Mac World article again at a more civilised hour. Sorry if this is a bit incoherent. Deleting malware from my housemate's computer has made me more tired than I initially thought.[/FONT][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
