You will not have any better an experience.

I don't think you are going to listen, but once again:

* you did not get a virus
* you did not need to replace your hard disk
* there are no Linux viruses in the wild & no spyware or anything similar at all
* if you can't tell us what site you were going to and so on, we can't
even tell you what happened
* you wasted your money replacing the disk
* you can just plug in the old disk and get whatever you want of it,
it is not infected

And finally, since you don't seem to be catching on...

* The people asking for your hard disk etc. are just teasing you! :¬)
