I am posting this for a friend who does not have news.
Please respond to him directly in the email address below.
Thanks.
======== start include message ==========
I've just encountered the "Stoned" virus.
This is the virus whose message is
Your PC is Stoned!
It's not so bad, except that it corrupts the Floppys that
you write to by moving the boot sector of the disk to say
Sector 12 and replacing by it's own boot sector with that
message and a statement to Legalize marijuana.
If there is someone who knows how to get rid of this virus
from my hard disk without reformating I will be really
grateful. Thanks so much.
