I've heard about a new virus called Squeezer something this weekend that is supposed to be especially evil and hard to get rid of. In addition it's new and most software won't detect it. Does anyone know of a detector for this virus or an eradicator? The nature of our business requires that we load a lot of programs which belong to other people onto our system. Viruses we can do without. We're currently booting on a locked floppy and reformatting our hard drive after each job then shutting the system off then restoring from an archive copy (known to be clean). All this takes a tremendous amount of time. Jerry
