Is there anyway to clean off the disks? My mom does a tape back-up
every night at her work and her disks are infected. Right now she's
re-typing everything, which will take about a month or two to do. She lost
everything between the viruii.
RC> ost, if not all, AV programs will detect and clean an ANTIEXE

I belive she got her system cleaned already.
