Virus infected my SE20! Message-ID: <20941@prls.UUCP> Date: 10 Apr 89 22:23:49 GMT Reply-To: lim@prls.UUCP (Fredric Lim) Distribution: usa Organization: Philips Research Labs, Sunnyvale, California Lines: 16 My friend's SE has been infected with a virus. He used Virus Detective version 1.1 to discover this. Apparently, his system finder, and several applications are infected. What is the best way to eradicate the virus without erasing the hard disk? After eradication, is there another way he can verify all the virii are removed? Is there a way to check if other files, not listed by Virus Detective are infected? Any information you feel will be of help will be appreciated. Please respond to me, since I'm sure the net has had enough of these type of problems discussed. Thank you in advance. --- Fredric J.
