After hours of failing to get Windows to install, the owner suddenly
announced he thought his computer might be infected.  I ran F-Prot
straight away and sure enough it announced it had detected 'Stoned' in
memory.  I booted from my clean floppy and when running F-Prot again
it claimed the hard-disk was infected with not 'Stoned' but
'Michaelangelo'.  I assumed the disk must be infected with both but
let F-Prot clean 'Michaelangelo' anyway, expecting the boot sector to
now become infected with 'Stoned'.  (That would be right, wouldn't
it?)  However after this cleaning, and clean booting again, F-Prot
declared the disk clean.

Q's 1) Could his hard disk still infected with 'Stoned' and/or
          'Michaelangelo' and F-Prot can't detect either for some
          reason?

   or 2) Was F-Prot's detection of 'Stoned' in memory actually a
          mis-identification of 'Michaelangelo'?
