Yes.

Install antivirus software. For example, ClamWin is free, and there is a free version of AVG. Download the latest antivirus software definitions.

Scan the MDF files. The virus usually corrupt the MDF file. So, I would not try to restore an infected file on the server, even after it has been cleaned. There are tools available to check the integrity of files MDF and even to repair. Search the Web.

There are two things you should not do. Do a virus scan on a file to a running instance of MS SQL MDF, or configure your anti-virus program's automatic protection function to include the files of MS SQL MDF.  This is because the program antivirus and MS SQL can compete for the lock on these files. For more details, see Microsoft 'Guidelines for choosing to run antivirus software on computers that are running SQL Server'

  • Option to enter the name of data file in SQL * Loader

    Hello

    I have a requirement to enter the name of the data file in the staging table, is it possible that I can capture in SQL * Loader or any other way to do it.

    Need suggestion of experts please.

    Thank you

    Genoo salvation,

    Please have the basename command in Linux to enter the name of the file that is currently running. I don't have a linux machine at the moment access, so please check at your end.

    BTW, as you file name of variant data in and values not consistent, you need to change the data file to include the file name. Unless it is approved for your management I don't see alternatives like the fill source tables are the data file. If this is approved then you can do the following:

    SED EI / $/ ' basename $0' /'-i '.

    Thus, for example, if you have a data file name 01test.csv, and it contains data such as:

    11, AAA, ABC

    22, BBB, BCD

    The command: sed EI / $/, ' basename $0' /'-i 01test.csv will go to:

    11, AAA, ABC, 01test.csv

    22, BBB, BCD, 01test.csv

    Then use SQL Loader to load the file

    It is the closest solution to you, I can think. There is no way that you can achieve your goal of features SQL Loader but rather, you should use technical Linux for a work around.

  • Load an external SWF file without overwriting my container SWF (AS2) file

    Hello world

    I want to load an external SWF with AS2, but file without overwriting my container file. How can I achieve this? What is the correct code?

    Here is the code I use :

    loadMovieNum ("external.swf", 0);

    countdown = function() {}

    trace ("OK");

    }

    countdownIt = setInterval (countdown, 1000);


    It works well, but as I said, it overwrites my container SWF file. If I load into level 1, my container file works but not the one I try to load... .



    Can someone help me with this, please?

    Try to use the loadMovie method... meaning container.loadMovie.  See below for an explanation: Load external in another SWF SWF

    If the loaded file does not work when you load it, it is probably because you have references to _root in there who do not find the expected _root.  You must set the file loaded _lockroot property to be true.

  • How can I get rid of a virus

    I accidentally downloaded a virus. My device is frozen, cannot access the internet. The virus requires the payment of $500 to unlock the screen. How can I get rid of the virus

    There are ideas and additional links within this Council; However

    some of the problems with a 'ransomware' scam can translate by allowing a

    real attack once you leave in your phone. Otherwise, it's a bluff.

    Phony 'technical support' / 'ransomware' popups and web pages

    Most of the items I found in the deal with OS X and a few mention iOS.

    There is an article on how to deal with the issues of adware in Safari, which

    are based on the ability to boot the device with the browser, in order to

    do not keep the same web address, then you can disable the source.

    The notice of an attack is usually a bluff, iOS and OS X; When you act on

    the element as they suggest, to call a phone number or click a button to allow

    In addition to access, the issue intensifies; the attacker gets access to the

    device and to any payment method available for their "healing" to the attack.

    The scam is to get people to think that the answer is the warning, but it's

    fake; acting so on him with faith is the quicksand.

    Maybe you can start the machine with the browser disabled (or extensions turned off)

    to see if you can follow through with the ideas presented in above links.

    These ideas helped others in the past, and avoidance is the best remedy.
