    After reading up on it, I think it is a better idea to format the drive.
    This virus inserts it's code into every program file that is run, including Command.Com, one of the old style virui, around since '91. Eventually the entire drive is infected.
    While there are cleaning methods that may work, it usually isn't a good idea to insert or delete code in a compiled executable program. They can get buggy, causing errors.
