My MS-DOS system has been infected by some virus. From descriptions of
known viruses I think that the one I've been attacked by is DOS-62
or UNESCO virus. COM files infect (~+650 bytes) COM files only and
randomly make infected files initiate a warm-boot.

I just want to know if someone out there know the details of this
virus and if there is any program that can help identify infected
files and otherwise give me guidelines how to fight the virus.

Thanks,

	Soren
