I really doubt this is my problem.  At the time I first experienced the problem
I had only 4 diskettes of software: Workbench 1.3.2, Extras 1.3.2, Falcon 1.0
Disk 1, and Falcon 1.0 Disk2 (Falcon WAS PURCHASED brand new).  Since then I 
have added several fish disks, but other than that, my collection is virgin.
So unless C= is shipping teh virus with their software, or Spectrum Holobyte
with theirs, this is not a virus related problem.
