This error is generated if you have McAfee's virus protection software Vshield

Windows, temporarily disable Vshield by using the MS-DOS REM command to remark
out the Vshield entries in the AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS files. (For

If you suspect that your computer has a virus and you are using MS-DOS 6.0 or
later, run Microsoft Anti-Virus. If you are running an earlier version of

virus-correction service or vendor.
