The clock in my MacPlus unexpectedly resets its value, and the other
battery RAM values are reset simultaneously. I have had it in for
repair, but there is nothing wrong with the hardware.

This resetting is most likely to happen when I turn off the computer,
and then disconnect the hard drive, especially if I run some other system
disk in between. But the whole thing is unpredictable -- sometimes
everything works just fine.

I have of lots of software on my hard disk, 35 Mb. I think the problem
started after I switched to System 6.0. I use an old version of Smart
Alarms.

The whole thing might be due to a virus, not very likely, but which
vira causes this kind of behaviour? (What are their INIT's?)

I think this question has been up before, but I don't think the answer
was posted.
