     It is unsafe as I have booted from a CLEAN write-protected copy and 
scanned...
     Memory managers have done nothing to give me back the 65K of upper 
memory taken by expanded memory... Some suggested "copying" working programs 
from one system to this one, and I tried that with one game, a 15M game, and 
still get the same...
     The scanner I have tried... ThunderByte for DOS version 8.02 (the latest 
I can find on the net). F-Prot v2.27a gives the "too big to fit in memory 
error" and haven't bothered trying McAffee's Scan.
     TBAV turns up nothing... no warnings, no viruses, nada...
