Re plural of virus and English and Latin dictionaries...

There was a ***long*** discussion of this on a conference disk where I
work (IBM).  The conference concerns the English language, as well as others.
The final word on the subject was that 'virus' does *not* have a Latin
plural.  The only acceptable plural of 'virus' is 'viruses'.
