A friend of mine hass just been hit by a virus.  He doesn't think that
this one is wiping out his disk but none-the-less.... This one will,
from what I understand, trash every other character on his screen at
random times. Has anyone experienced this one before? Yes he does d/l 
from local bbs's. If his disk has not been trashed, what would be his
next course of action? I will see if I can get a copy of his
command.com or whatever else he thinks might be infected. Anyone
interested?
