Help - need to recover files deleted by mistake on wk2003

Is there a way to restore the files that have been put in quarantine that should not have been?

I ran Clam Win on my wk2003 server with the quarantine option set and it moved many operating system files to the quarantine directory.

I can boot the server but when I try to log on to it it starts to log me in and then turns around and logs me off again

I can map the c drive of the server from my workstation and can see them in the quarantine directory ( there are a lot of them! )

Anyone know of a quick way to get them back where they belong or which ones I need to get back logged in?

Or do I have to rename name and move each file back to the right directory ?

Any help would be great

You will have to remove the "infected" from the name of the files in quarantine and copy/move them back to their original directories. Maybe you could get the original file location from the scan logs or google their location on the web.

ClamWin version 0.96 (available now) does not quarantine files in the Windows directory that are false positive detections.
