	I told you how to clean a disk, but I didn't really answer
your question.  After you get the clean program, you can run it in a
simple batch file as follows:

- -------------------------- cut here ----------------------------------------

@echo off
:retry
echo Insert disk to clean in drive A:
echo (Press any key to continue or Ctrl-C to quit)
pause > nul
clean a: [stoned]
goto retry

- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

You should have each user run this with all their disks.

I hope this solves your virus problem !
