Definitely sound advice! This virus will try to attach itself to any
exe,com,app,or ovl file you run once it is in memory ... and as such
has the tendency to propagate quite quickly. The latest SCANxx can
usually be found quickest on a local DOS based BBS (it is sharware )
and has CLEANUP which will eradicate the virus. There is also alot of
interesting documentation that comes with it. The only problem is that
this paticular flavor of virus can not always be removed without some
damage to the original file ... but a least it can be removed!

I would be interested in knowing what the commercial package was ...
we have seen a few minor breakouts here in Phoenix lately.
