 Just goes to show what I get for typing before reading..  (I should
have recognized the "Stoned" virus...

 XTREE.EXE *MAY* be a vector, however a more likely candidate is a,
pirated I suspect, version of Norton Utilities.  (I guess he got what
he paid for..)  Like I said, he is very new to the MS-DOS community
and really did not know the Norton Utils from Sub-Hunter...

 We sterilized his drive and isolated the infected disks.  However, I
would still like to know if anyone has a "CURE" program for it..
