	Have anyone heard of the "Stone" virus on the IBM PC? It's the
one that puts a msg. like "Your PC is now stoned. Legalize Marajuana!"
in your floppy disk boot sector. My father has a few PC's at work that
have been infected by this virus and I had no success removing it(I
tried booting from a clean floppy disk and formatting the hard disk
and even that didn't work.) They do have a virus checking program
called virex(vpcscan?); it will find the virus on infected floppy
disks, but not hard disks. I consider myself fairly knowledgable about
PC and DOS and I've tried the obvious ways to get rid of it; I can
think of some esoteric ways that the virus can work, but I'd prefer
not to do low-level format of all the hard disks if possible. So if
anyone has any suggestions on curing this problem or can provide some
insight into how the virus works, I'll be grateful. If you need any
more info. from me, I'll be glad to provide them.


Thanks in advance,
