Several of our lab machines have become infected with a virus that has
been identified as:
	NOINT (STONED)			F-PROT 2.05
	A new variant of STONED		F-PROT 2.06
	NOINT				CPAV (version that came with
					      PCTOOLS 8.0)

F-PROT, which is the college's primary virus protection program, does
not disinfect the virus; however, CPAV will.

Why is F-PROT able to detect but not disinfect NOINT and are there plans
for F-PROT to eventually handle the virus?

Thanks for any help.
