Given how you just loaded 98 onto the drive, were it me, I'd reformat instead of depending upon the virus killer. Good luck .... and you do realize that when something like this happens ... IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT .... the friends might not say it out loud, but mentally ......... gggggg LOL and have been there ..... Nemer

Scott, From my virus encyclopedia. There are a few stealth viruses. STEALTH BOMBER.2155 is found sometimes. It is quite infectious, and results in trivial damage (3 minutes repair time). COM files are infected. The virus has a memory-resident infection system. It has intermediate stealth capability. The whole virus is encrypted. The virus displays a message. STEALTHBOOT is found frequently. It is quite infectious, and results in moderate damage (disk trashing). Boot and/or partition sectors can be infected. The virus has a memory-resident payload and infection system. It has advanced stealth capability. This virus is not encrypted. The virus fakes bad sectors. There are 4 aliases for this virus: Nops, KOH-Compress, Havoc and PMBS. There are 4 known variants : KOHa-d, a-m, mp and PMBSa-b. STEALTHBOOT.MP.3080 is found frequently. It is not very infectious, and results in trivial damage (3 minutes repair time). Boot and/or partition sectors and EXE files can be infected. The virus has a memory-resident infection system. It has no stealth capability and is very visible. This virus is not encrypted. This virus overwrites infected files. From Dr. Solomons. Good Luck D
