	Vsum still says no utility will remove joshi and that low
level format is required f-prot says "Cured" whne I use it gainst
Joshi, but it still says infected after that, and the hard disk is no
longer bootable. v 1.15a.  those who know say ll-format NEVER needed.
I do not know how to manually rebuild partition table so I have done
three of these so far.

	Is their a utility Ms Hoffman? perhaps yuou just don't want to
admit it because McAffe's can't? (i have not tried McAffee but I
assume she'd say if his did.)

	f-prot must be intended to work - "cured" - so can the author
speak to this?

Thanks for any advice from any source
