I have been infected by a virus.  Using VKILLER 2.2 I have learned that I
have the 'Key' virus that everyone is talking about.  It is waiting for a 
certain disk to be inserted before it does its damage.  Thankfully, I never 
inserted that disk.  By the spread of the virus (about 25 of my disks) I have
determined that I have had the virus for about 3 weeks.  Now, I probably still 
have the program that generated the virus in the first place.  Is there any 
way to test for that?  I'd like to determine where I picked it up from.
