So I was testing out my OSSC when the floppy disk in the drive at boot up reported a boot sector virus (it had a name beginning with K but I didn't catch it.) I fired up the EmuTOS SD card and formatted the floppy disk. Now it reports nothing on boot up. If I'm downloading files and converting MSA files to floppy am I gonna need an antivirus? Also, can this get on the UltraSatan? How do I protect myself.
Just when I thought I had everything sorted that message came up!
Tired.
