     Is it safe to assume by this message that you "didn't" follow the 
instructions for scanning for viruses?
Rule number 1...
Boot from a clean write-protected floppy.
In most cases this would not involve loading memory managers etc, just a 
simple plain dos boot to a prompt. This isn't to say that your boot disk 
can't 
have a memory manager installed during the boot, but normally speaking people 
who take the time to make a boot disk don't bother installing memory managers 
on the floppy.
     You might want to try this before giving up.
