Just wondering are you guys not running AV SW on your old HW? I personally run 
period specific AV SW on my older machines. Granted I have mostly IBM 51xx 
series machines and later Macs so AV SW is easier to find. 

Since I get most of my stuff for these machines from dubious sources (e-bay, 
garage sales, some random FTP, etc.) I never know what I am getting. So all of 
my computers run AV of SW of some form. Biggest issue is finding the latest 
signature DB that works on older versions of the SW. F-Prot had a DOS version 
available until a few years ago. I am not sure if any of the AV makers still 
have an up to date AV SW for DOS...
