Re: Warning Virus July 31st (Got me).

Actually I think this one *DID* nail me. My C drive went belly up
about 3AM with a loud Clunk and a message about not being able
to write to the C drve. When I tried to reboot the Cdrive was no
longer accessible. I built a boot disk from a full-drive ZIP I put
on my office machine and when I booted, the drive had lost
all partitioning. I repartitioned using Fdisk and reformatted.
Reloaded Win 95 and al the rest off CD-Roms. My 2nd drive
was completely intact. Just the 1st drive got trashed. Took all
my ASCII-art with it :-( :-( :-(
