Yes, the KillVirus INIT contains a "dummy" nVIR resource which it will
attempt to install into the System file. This resource will trigger
most less-sophisticated virus detectors. In addition, KillVirus is
supposed to be able to automatically uninfect files infected with the
A strain of nVIR. I haven't tested this, but I wouldn't want to bet
the farm on it.
