Beginner's Supnik Emulator help

  I downloaded E11 some years ago on a Pent I desktop but never got it to
work, prolly due to no smarts on my part.

  This evening, thinking it might be fun to hook up my M4 Data SCSI 9trker
to the laptop, and use it to work on Stuff to be transferred to the
11/44 later, I DL'ed the latest and greatest from his Site (V3.1), and
installed it. I am running Win 2000 on an IBM A21m Thinkpad, with 256M of
RAM and a 10GB HD.

  Right away, my little Pest Control program flags me that 'ntvdm.exe' has
been detected, and as many times as I exterminate it, it returns as soon
as e11.exe is run.

  Is this a bug, or something in E11 that looks like one? The details say
it is a VBB virus tutorial... if it *is* a virus, or virus-related
creepy-crawly, then there are much bigger problems afoot and I'll scrub
the whole thing.

  At the E11> prompt in the DOS window, I type:

E11> set cpu 44
E11> mount du0: rsx11m
 ERROR opening file - RSX11M.DSK
E11> mount du1: ra80
 ERROR opening file - RA80.DSK

  And so on... each iteration brings up the virus warning, and the disk
emulations seem to be AWOL.


  So: any ideas? Obvious Stupidities? etc?


 Cheers

John
