I think I have a virus, but I'll be darned if I know what it is or how to kill it!

My Ps/2 55sx has been acting very strange the last few weeks.
Today was the second occasion that it booted up with the above error
message.....afternursing it a DOS disk, I find that all the files in my home directory
have benn WIPED OUT!

I am using the latest version of Norton Anti-Virus and Norton 6.0
....did Norton 6.0 map something where it shouldn't have????
....i was playing around with the anti virus prior to this stuff...
but the anti-virus picks up nothing wrong!


			All  expereinces/suggestions greatly appreciated!

				Thanks,
					Pete
