Has anyone come accros a virus that effects all Applications setup in 
ndows?
I encounter something that causes the Windows screen to flicker, causes saved 
& entered text not be displayed on the screen.... even though the saved text 
is there.
How do I know?  I've clicked empty spaces on a dial up data list (where my 
number list normally is displayed) and the dial up modem screen shows up; 
lucky that the modem did not connect to the other system.
Non of the user stored information in windows is displayed....  even when you 
key in info at the RUN option.
All DOS programs work fine.
Has anyone ever come accross something like this and is it a virus?
Thanks in advance......
