One other negative comment about F-Prot is: F-driver.sys does not check drive A for any possible boot sector virus when we warm boot the machine. The V-Shield does check drive A for any possible boot sector virus and will denied the warm boot if there is any boot sector virus in the floppy drive A. Hopefully frisk will implement this for his next version of F-PROT. It is a great program. - -- /\ Merry Christmas /* \ / * \ and / * \ / * \ Happy New Year / * * \ ^^^^^^^^^^^^ sulistio@futon.sfsu.edu ||| sulistio@sutro.sfsu.edu ||| sulistio@sfsuvax1.sfsu.edu ||| UUCP mail : mul@wet.UUCP ^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^
