    I quote this from the link below:

    "Had the same problem using file properties I made the autoexec.nt file both read only and hidden. Seems to work. File is there on boot up and all my dos base programs are working."

    Setting the properties to read-only and hidden also prevented the virus? trojan? from deleting the autoexec.nt file. Thank you!
