no it is not
What you call Low-Level-Format it is not a LLF. You mean a format where actually overwrite every bit on the drive instead of just resetting the table of contents. That is a great thing to do after an infection, and several utilities will let you do that, but it is not a LLF. If you want to use the term improperly like most people out there (apparently also the guy that translated the Powmax menu from Chinese or Korean into english for Maxtor).
