   Have isolated(quarantined) this ...BEAGLE virus. It is
a worm, and it was a few days before I discovered it. I
was instructed to disable SYSTEM RESTORE... I cannot find
a way to DISABLE,and wonder if it's OK to delete/remove
the program. Will this be the correct action to take, or
does anyone know how to DISABLE system restore ?
