Hello,

Does anyone have information on the Disk Killer Virus?  (I've already
got Patricia Hoffman's VSUM - I need some more detailed info).
Running F-PROT 1.15A on a DTK 286 under MS-DOS 4.01 results in the
following:

        This boot sector is infected with the Disk Killer virus.
        Disinfect? Y

        Can not cure - original boot sector not found.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
