Well I was reading through the Virusx 4.0 Docs and i was wondering 
if the "Non-Boot Block Virusexs" could infect a program and then 
if ya powerpacked the program could the virus "Hide" inside the
Packed Code. 

Could KV (Kill Virus) find the Powerpacked virus code inside a 
ppak'ed prog? 

I was wondering this because basicially ALL my programs are Power Packed.

Well I was going to mail this to Steve Tibbit but i can't find his address
anywhere.

Well Just a few thughts.
