I have recently stumbled on to a disk that has something (virus)
called LAZARUS. I would like to know if anyone has a virus detector or
killer that can handle this. The virus detectors/killers that I have
now do not seem to handle this and they only seem to handle the SCA virus.
I would greatly appreciate any information on the virus and
how to rid myself of this so that my disk will once again live a healthy
and happy life.

Could this have anything to do with Diskdoctor, which titles your disk Lazurus if it's seriously f*cked up? -Vince Lee

When DiskDoctor can't read the name of the disk, it renames it as Lazarus - indicating a resurrected disk. Betty
