The most frustrating thing is that my "Virus Protection" was and is up to
date. I even ran a scan after it happened and it came up that my system
was clean????? Ended up re-loading a full system C:\ backup and all was
better.

A friend got a virus, and it was a smart one.

He could not revert to an earlier time, to get rid of it. He could restore
the system only to the day he got the virus. He has not cleaned his system,
using all the online resources he could find.

I have a feeling that only a re-format is going to do the job, but he has
software that he will not be able to get again, after a format.

Frustrating; some people have nothing better to do than to sit around and
write nasty virus code.

Worst one I saw was a machine where the virus had dsabled the ability
to copy files!

"Are you crazy?" yelled the customer, "with your hand on my steak?"
"What" answers the waiter, "You want it to fall on the floor again?"
