A virus is not fun. Some how I pickup one up (I do practice safe se, er computing). This virus was a strange one. It was small and attached itself to the boot record of any disk it infected and waited for a file of about 200,000 bytes to appear at which time it trasted the Master Boot Record. I spendhours and hours trying to find all the disks that were infected using Norton Anti-virus to disinfect all the floppies and hard drives around here. I am still not sure that I have gotten them all. What a royal pain. Please do practice save; sex computing faxing or anything else that exposes your .. parts. Newton nhunt@jagat.com
