Stopping the antivirus doesn't seem to be working but by using a 3rd party process scanner in windows it definitely shows AVG to be doing something with the external drive.
I tried doing an ntfsfix on the drive the trying to mount it in the terminal and STILL no luck. I am going insane, all I want to do is mount this @$^#! drive....

Mounting volume... OK
Processing of $MFT and $MFTMirr completed successfully.
NTFS volume version is 3.1.
NTFS partition /dev/sdb2 was processed successfully.
daniel@daniel-ubuntu:~$ sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb2 /media/sb2
Failed to read last sector (83891360): Invalid argument
HINTS: Either the volume is a RAID/LDM but it wasn't setup yet,
or it was not setup correctly (e.g. by not using mdadm --build ...),
or a wrong device is tried to be mounted,
or the partition table is corrupt (partition is smaller than NTFS),
or the NTFS boot sector is corrupt (NTFS size is not valid).
Failed to mount '/dev/sdb2': Invalid argument
The device '/dev/sdb2' doesn't seem to have a valid NTFS.
Maybe the wrong device is used? Or the whole disk instead of a
partition (e.g. /dev/sda, not /dev/sda1)? Or the other way around?
