>all
>> files that were being deleted. The user immediately shut down the
>computer,
>> but it was too late.This virus wiped all out. It ate the Anti-Virus
>Software
>> that comes with the Windows '95 Program along with F-Prot AVS.
>Neither was
>> able to detect it. Please be careful and send this to as many people
>as
>> possible, so maybe this new virus can be eliminated. Please pass this
