Running Win95. From 4 to 6 minutes after bootup, my desktop is working fine. After this point, I hear the disk run for a second and when moving my cursor over my icons on the desktop, the icons move around and it's hard to catch the icons. Is this a virus? Any possible solution this this problem? Thanks in advance, Steve Magee

sonds like a virus to me. W32.Magistr.24876@mm read about it here http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.magistr.24876@mm.html post back

just wondering is there anyway i can possibly and safely get a copy of that virus without getting my system infected? and would it do anymore damage than just making the icons dance??....i would like to play a joke on somebody...:-)....ah and would it affect windows xp? -fernan

No..A virus is no joke and probably you will need to catch one on your computer once to understand that. There are probably some java scripts out there that will do what you are asking. But, per your question, it appears you wouldn't know how to use java scripts anyway and also XP and Microsoft have issues with java unless you download the program.

Actually I've caught quite a few of them, if you would've left your email I would've sent you the best of my collection... :)
