WHOAA!  Thats not exactly true. While the VIRUS will not damage your
	hardware it could very well destroy some commercial products!!
	There are quite a few commercial games that use the boot block
	to store information and copy protection schemes if the VIRUS
	overwrites this information ZAPP goes your game!!!

	Just another good reason to run from backups!!
