Thank you Paul, and others for the additional information concerning this virus. Nortons seems to have resolved the problem completely, and with all the defraging & optimizing things are running a little better than before my Macs got infected. I did end up losing several archived programs due to extreme corruption, but I think I've got backups (somewhere) and I consider it a small price to pay to have my machines back under my control. O'well live and learn.
the other thread - 9.1 vs. 9.2.2. The 9.1 vs 9.2.2 issue is often widely debated on the6400zone.com With most people who have tried it on unsupported machines reporting a very marked overall speed increase. Via os9helper at os9forever.com The other trick to try is installing the 9.2.2 open transport control panel and extensions in 9.1 - most people report a marginal increase in browser speed/ page loading - marginal but noticable. More info (alot) and the DL's can be found at the6400zone.com My experience - I've been running 9.2.2 as a stand alone OS on both an 8600/G3 500 (kansas) and a stock 6400/200 for several months. For me, 9.2.2 runs like greased lightning compared to 9.1. So much so that I would never even consider 9.1 again. I also have none of the sleep/wake /stability issues or other garb I had under 9.1 - like the ocassional hang during boot. The disk burner app is still unsupported although there is an easy hack around some people have success with (os9forever.com for instructions). But who cares, that burner app blows compared to toast 5.2 ti anyways. If you had a major slow down using 9.2.2 I would suspect the installer did an incomplete/corrupt installation or you had some type of conflict issue going on. -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
