Abstract

Virus Attack!. Just a few weeks ago one of our PCs was attacked by the “stoned” virus, a virulent strain that attaches itself to the boot sector and partition table of any disk that happens to be around. If you have a hard disk, all you have to do is place an infected floppy disk in Drive A: and ask for a directory listing (DIR). That's enough to transfer the virus to the hard disk; from there it will infect every other floppy you place into the system.
