if you'll look above, thats not what MN said... he said a kind of
resources manager is executed directly from the disk itself...
this all seems quite silly though... a virus is a program, by
definition, how can a program do anything if it's instructions aren't
carried out? thats the execution process...
... using VCL is programming vicariously through others...
