   Last weekend I found a Tick Virus in a friend's disk. It was detected and
removed by Virus_Checker 5.22. I didn't find a virus description in the
Virus_Checker docs. It was a boot block type and seems to be harmless, but I
would like to confirm with you. Anyone can give me a short explanation about
wat this virus does? I have a virus backup, if anyone want a copy.
