SYMPTOMS
After you replace a floppy disk, Microsoft Anti-Virus and Microsoft
Anti-Virus for Windows scan only the root directory of the second disk.
CAUSE
If you don't reselect the drive, Microsoft Anti-Virus does not have
the opportunity to build a new directory list.
WORKAROUND
To correctly scan subsequent disks that have subdirectories, reselect
the floppy disk drive before choosing Scan.
