A post-script. James came by today to offer a sympathetic hand. We backed up everything we could, made some clean disks using the McAfee programs from the CIS Virusforum, rubbed a few crystals and assorted gemstones, and typed in the command to clean the partition tables. Not only was "Stoned" removed, but the Cleanup program found another memory-resident virus, Azusa, (apparently created after our version of Scan) and removed it too. Praise St. Silicon, neither 300Meg harddrive required rebuilding. You can bet that we will have the cleanest house in town from now on. Thanks to everyone here who offered us moral support during this harrowing experience. Ken Loss-Cutler
