I tried to remove Jerusalem B from a computer using McAfee's M-J. It claimed to have removed many occurances the first time I ran it, but Scan (v6.3) still found lots of infected files. Subsequent runs of M-J said "clean" for all the files, yet Scan (and VIRscan) said files were still infected. I have tried using a 'clean' disk for boot and virus scanning. Note, M-J complained about my write protect being on. What I am doing wrong? Note, due to problems with BITFTP, I would rather using a modem long distance to transfer files then pull them off of Bitnet/Internet -- so please make suggestions accordingly. Thanks.
