- I work in an IBM lab at tufts and lately we've been have a great deal of
- difficulty with the FORM virus. It's a fairly harmless virus and usually
- we can just remove it with Macafee, but sometimes (possibly only with
- dos 5) we can't remove it from the boot sector. Has anyone had any
- experience with this particular virus? Why can't it be removed? Replies
- by mail would probably be best.
