A1200 boot up error.

And what's the excuse for disks being not write protected?

Anyway HNY96 virus pops out every now and then, so it's good to check system files etc occasionally. And all games and demos you might found from net.

I had same problem when HNY96 was new and virus checkers didn't recognize it yet. Some program didn't read the infected files and that's how I concluded which was infected and which wasn't.. replaced them by hand.. there was some work with it.. and then week after the virus databases got updated

VirusZ should be able to remove it completely without losing files. Can you make bootable disk or temporary HD or something like that on system which isn't infected? And boot from it with cold reboot (Amiga turned off for 30s at least). In any case, turn off computer always if you're booted from infected media and after the cleaning too to be sure virus won't be in memory on next try.

Yeah... and don't boot accidently from the infected partition until it's cleaned
