I once bougth a used 42 Mbyte hard drive, and didn't format it.
I just deleted all the files, and then loaded MSDOS 6.22.
I began tranferring DOS programs from my 586.
After 15 days the DIABLO boot track virus appeared in my 586 and
several diskets.
Thougth: if you buy an used computer or disk: first thing to do is:
a) Run an antivirus, or
b) Completly format the harddrive.
I love DOS, I hate Doze
