[QUOTE="6string, post: 961830, member: 120039"] if you just reinstall, you will still have the "bad stuff" on there. Clean install is the only way to ensure that you have a clean system. Your options are to get a backup drive, which you should have anyway, and then you wouldn't be in this boat, or dual layered discs, or usb sticks, and just copy your music, pictures, docs, etc.... at the end of the day, you can pick up an external drive for around $75. If you take it to Apple, I suspect that they will do a clean install, and you will have lost all your data anyway. [/QUOTE]
