I recently found one of my floppy disks to be corrupted. When I scanned the diskette with Scan v. 77, I was told it was infected with the Bloody! virus. I ran Clean-Up v. 77, and it was successfully removed. However, I have since scanned *all* the software I used in the previous week or two, and found no trace of it. Does anybody have an explanation for this? Is it possible that a corrupt file header could be misconstrued as a virus? Or is the "gestation" period of the Bloody! virus longer than a week or two?
