Novell mentions something in the install instructions for the 410PT6
patches that some have found the "Die-Hard" virus.  Usually the system
will give an error reading the load file SERVER.EXE if this virus is
present.  Their solution is to:
1. scan the DOS boot drive and clean it of all viruses
2. rename server.old or mserver.old to server.exe or mserver.exe
3. run lswap.exe
4. run newly modified server.exe or mserver.exe if running sftiii

I've installed the 410PT6 patches to a ProLiant 1500 without any problems.
