SUMMARY
=======

If Microsoft Anti-Virus for Windows detects the FORMS virus, the following
generic message is displayed:

  The virus infecting this disk has not been analyzed by Central Point
  Software. As a result, the virus cannot be removed. See your "MS-DOS 6 User's
  Guide" for information about updating Microsoft Anti-Virus so you can detect
  and remove the latest viruses.

Microsoft Anti-Virus for Windows cannot clean the FORMS virus but the
MS-DOS-based version of Microsoft Anti-Virus (MSAV.EXE) can.

MORE INFORMATION
================

If you do not have the MS-DOS-based version of Microsoft Anti-Virus installed,
run SETUP /E to install the optional utilities. For more information on SETUP
/E, see page 4 of the "MS-DOS 6 User's Guide."
