 SL>That's kind of what I was implying. Most virii expect to be on FAT, and
 SL>so expect certain things to be incertain places. Under HPFS, they
 SL>aren't (which can lead to different problems too).
 GM> Actually, I thought it was more than that, but I'll defer to the

Addendum: When I say "most viruses" I mean, most of the ones that are 
esigned
to damage the disk itself. Most viruses just infect files, rather than damage
the disk structure.
