  19. Try this with win '95
  20.  
  21. go to a DOS window.
  22. Type CD\
  23. Type MD [Alt + 229]MSCRAP
  24. Return to Win 95
  25. Go to the root directory
  26. Try and open the folder labeled _MSCRAP
  27.  
  28. Win 95 will tell you this directory doesn't exist so will you Anti Viral Software.
  29.  
  30. Just what you want for mission critical systems (or your home system).
  31.  
  32. How long do you think it's going to be before a virus using this takes to arrive
  33. on systems? Not long I think. Remember to scan you system from a DOS 
  34. window.

  36. Thanks for this info from Richard Smith.
