I installed Norton 5.0 today (as a matter of fact). It does have a low
level format. Many of the changes appear to be for interactive
use of the utilities. FFis now a combination of the old FF and grep.
There is a Disk monitor program DISKMON that runs as a TSR and will popup
with a warning anytime something is going to be written to disk.
Unfortunatelt I tried doing a simple copy and a popup warned me 3 times
that I was attempting to write to disk. This utility is supposed to help
prevent virus infection, but it seems like more of a pain to me.
There are a lot of nice things about 5.0 though. I can't really
compare them to SPINRITE since I've never used it. The NDD has been
upgraded too, and you can now edit a disk even if it isn't a DOS disk.

On the other hand, you still can't delete directories that have
subdirectories. I really wish Norton had the equivalent prune and
graft utilities that QDOS II has.

I'm not sure I answered your question though? 
Gads!!! I'm rambling!!! I'm going to have to stop reading J. Pournelle
or I'll start having the urge to start talking about my personal life!
