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.
