System Restore to the rescue!
That said, if you were running Linux even back then, I feel for you. I don't think OS snapshots were a thing yet in 2008.
Hum... You think I was collecting virus in the system folders?
And Linux could do backups perfectly well back then. I just didn't have offline backups of the virus, and the online one got erased too. Why would Linux do OS snapshots anyway? It's not something one would need.
