None of the listed files you provided are necessary for Windows to function.Here are the actual names of those healed files: 2 files named Blackbox[1].class ; 2 named Verifierbug[1].class and one named msdos.exe.
The reason those files probably remain infected, is that your virus scanner is unable to alter them, such as deleting them, as they are inuse while windows is running.
A problem with Windows based Anti-Virus apps is they can not alter any files that are currently inuse. So they quarantee the files.
If you want to remove the files, you will have to start up the computer is DOS, and remove them.
One good program for this is F-Prots DOS Anti-Virus program, which runs in DOS. This can repair, patch, delete any infected files, since the program runs in DOS, so that none of these infected files are loaded into memory.
The use of DOS based Anti-Virus programs have this benefit to them that Windows based A/V apps do not have. They are really simple to use also. Just download the F-prot for DOS, unzip it into the root dir, such as into C:\f-prot. make a windows bootup floppy disk.
Restart Windows with floppy inserted.
Then it will boot up into DOS. on the command line, just type
cd \
cd f-prot
pick the options you want, let it scan the system, also note that DOS A/V scanners will be faster than Windows scanner, and also much smaller, the F-prot download is just alittle less than 2megs.
System.ini is a normal txt file used by windows, you can open it to examine its contents in notepad, wordpad. If it does not open in these programs, then it is not a .ini file.Found Win.ini file: C:\WINDOWS\win.ini (8778 bytes, A)
Found line in Win.ini: load=essspk.exe
Found line in Win.ini: run=
Found System.ini file: C:\WINDOWS\system.ini (2101 bytes, A)
Found line in System.ini: shell=Explorer.exe
the esspk.exe might be your soundcard related utility(?) What sound card do you have? an ESSolo? SoundBlaster?
the comment about found explorer.exe is normal. this is the shell that windows loads that gives you your start menu, task bar....
your computer needs a hosts file, just create a txt file called hosts in the c:\windows folder. you need to insert just the line
localhost 127.0.0.1, this is the loopback address, some program wont work properly without.

Leonid Kruglyak (HHMI/University of California, Los Angeles) has been awarded the 2016 Edward Novitski Prize for his extraordinary level of creativity and intellectual ingenuity in the solution of significant problems in genetics research.
"Dr. Leonid Kruglyak has been a pioneer in human genetics for over 15 years…. he continues to pose questions and do experiments that affect our ability to understand the human genome…and he continues to change the way we think about the genome, how to navigate it, and what those changes mean in transcriptional regulation," said Elaine A. Ostrander, NIH Distinguished Investigator and Chief of the Cancer Genetics & Comparative Genomics Branch at the National Human Genome Research Institute and one of those nominating Kruglyak for this honor.
Drawing on a combination of mathematical, computational and experimental approaches, Dr. Kruglyak's innovative contributions have moved the fields of linkage genetics, population genetics, and genomics forward. His work on statistical standards for genome-wide linkage studies has transformed experimental design and become the gold standard for such experiments. Kruglyak also developed the linkage analysis program GENEHUNTER, which has been responsible for the identification of hundreds of human disease loci. Further, his group pioneered expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) studies, which enabled variation in global gene expression to be applied to genetics of complex human diseases. In recent years, his laboratory has focused on using genomic technology to establish S. cerevisiae and C. elegans as model organisms for studies of complex genetic variation.
Kruglyak has received the Burroughs Wellcome Fund Innovation Award in Functional Genomics (2000), a MERIT award from the National Institutes of Health (2002), the Agilent Thought Leader Award (2010), and the Curt Stern Award from the American Society of Human Genetics (2015). He is also a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Sciences and a long-time member of GSA.
The Novitski Prize recognizes a single experimental accomplishment or a body of work in which an exceptional level of creativity and intellectual ingenuity that has been used to design and execute scientific experiments to solve a difficult problem in genetics. It recognizes the beautiful and intellectually ingenious experimental design and execution involved in genetics scientific discovery. The Prize, established by the Novitski family and GSA, honors the memory of Edward Novitski (1918-2006), a Drosophila geneticist and lifelong GSA member, who specialized in chromosome mechanics and elucidating meiosis through the construction of modified chromosomes.

ArtisanHD Customer Reviews
As the owner of a small startup company, I looked around The Valley and online for professional high quality printed products. Other solutions always seemed to come with a tradeoff: poor customer service, product size constraints, high pricing and volume, or even bad finish quality. Working with Mike and his team I was able to produce the high quality unique products at competitive prices that I was looking for without compromise. Their knowledgeable customer service was phenomenal! We were even able to find solutions to some of the more complex printing and finishing requirements I needed. I'll definitely be working with them again on future projects!
I recently sold one of my Digital Art pieces and the team at ArtisanHD have the complete package really sorted out! They are a friendly, client orientated and totally professional team who happen to produce spectacular prints as well! Thanks guys for keeping everyone very happy!
Fantastic staff, fantastic facilities, second to none product quality output. I feel like you're my secret weapon.
Beautiful print work and customer service of the highest order – you'll be so thrilled with how well you're treated, and how they'll go the extra mile to make sure you're happy and satisfied with the final result.
It's rare I find a company today where the customer service, quality and pricing meet most every need I'm looking for. It's even rarer to find those companies where the staff are not only willing to meet those expectations, but surpass them. In a very stressful situation I created for myself, the staff at Artisan went out of their way to help me find a answer to my predicament. Their team worked with me to find a fast solution pulling me out of a situation I knew very few companies would go out of their way to solve. It's those actions I use to choose who I will send my next job. The service was awesome! The quality was awesome! Their staff was Awesome!
Artisan Colour is the most creative, talented and friendly place to print and mind meld. I have been satisfied with every experience I have had with them. Front end to delivery topnotch. So glad I was directed to them.
Simply the best. Great client services, great people, and great products.
When I inadvertently shipped a limited edition print to a customer before signing it, Artisan was quick to have it rerouted back to their facility to resolve my issue. When I then showed up during the holiday season –– right before New Year's Eve –– I was met by no less than the company's president, Doug Bondon, who was genuinely happy to assist me and get my order on its way in a matter of minutes. Folks, this is what topnotch, white glove service really looks like. Outstanding!

Garth Brooks Receives Kennedy Center Honors
Garth Brooks turned to social media on Saturday (May 22) to share his excitement after receiving the Kennedy Center Honors.
The country superstar was one of the handful of artists who received the honors in 2021, alongside comic actor Dick Van Dyke, dancer, artist and choreographer Debbie Allen, singer-songwriter Joan Baez and violinist Midori. The recipients were honored on Friday night (May 21) at a medallion ceremony that had been delayed from December 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The medallion ceremony traditionally takes place at the State Department, but the Associated Press reports that Friday night's honors took place at the Kennedy Center opera house. Previous Kennedy Center Honors recipient Gloria Estefan hosted the ceremony, while violinist Yo-Yo Ma performed in front of a socially distanced crowd of about 120 people.
Brooks made a self-deprecating joke during the ceremony, quipping, "I don't mind being the weak link on the chain. I'm in the chain!"
He turned to social media afterward to share a picture of himself and his wife, Trisha Yearwood, with him proudly displaying his medallion around his neck. An additional photo shows them sharing a sweet kiss.
"To loosely quote Maya Angelou I stand here as one but I stand here for the people who have carried me to this point," Brooks wrote to accompany the pictures, adding, "Grateful! love, g."
"The Kennedy Center Honors serves as a moment to celebrate the remarkable artists who have spent their lives elevating the cultural history of our nation and world," Kennedy Center Chairman David M. Rubenstein said in announcing the new honorees in January of 2021, adding that Brooks has "heightened country music's profile like no other singer before him."
The AP reports that the musical performances and tributes that are usually the highlight of the Kennedy Center Honors were split into two nights, with half of them taking place on Thursday and the other half on Saturday. Producers of the event also filmed tributes "all over campus," Kennedy Center President Deborah Rutter Rutter tells reporters. All of those tributes and performances will be edited together for a television special that is slated to air on June 6 on CBS.
Brooks previously took part in Kennedy Center Honors tributes to James Taylor, Jay Leno, Billy Joel and Loretta Lynn.

2018 Outlook: King Corn Dethroned
In the race for acreage, corn has finally taken a step backward. USDA projects corn and soybeans will both achieve 91 million planted acres next year—the first time in years the two have been equal.
Keep an eye on more than just soybean acres when it comes to predicting corn total acreage—watch wheat and cotton as well.
"We're going to lose some wheat acres and everyone I talk to in the south indicates there will be more cotton acres than in 2017—some of those acres will come out of corn and soybeans," says Chip Flory, Farm Journal markets expert. "I think we're going to lose corn and soybeans to spring wheat up in the Dakotas. I like 90.5 million acres on both for a 181 corn and soybean total."
Corn prices could be better next year.
"Corn returns [in 2017] might not have been quite as bad as you expected them to be because we had pretty good yields," says Pat Westhoff, director of FAPRI at the University of Missouri. "Higher prices for 2018 delivery could make the crop look better.
"USDA is projecting a $3.20 per bushel average for this year and $3.30 for next year, but futures have been stronger than that," Westhoff adds.
Domestically, corn needs continue with ethanol and livestock feed driving potential growth. If you live in an area near ethanol plants or feedlots, planting corn could be the best choice.
"Look at hog and cattle prices, if you're a farmer feeder it makes a lot of sense to move that corn off the farm on the hoof rather than on the truck," Flory says. "When you get into corn deficit areas, like Northwest Iowa, when you start looking at cash markets there is a book to be written in opportunity."
Be wary of foreign competition. Soybean returns are more promising for farmers than corn still. Keep a close eye on what happens in South America, however, higher-than-expected yields could easily soften soybean prices, making corn more appealing.
"The size of the South American soybean crop this winter and early spring will have a lot to do with how U.S. soybean acres come out, which could influence corn acres," Westhoff says. "Also watch exchange rates as they have been moving around a lot and could bring a surprise."
In addition, foreign demand for ethanol has been on the rise in recent years and the potential for uptick in demand from China could be encouraging for corn growers. Chinese officials recently announced the country intends expand ethanol use up to 10% of fuel supply, Westhoff adds.
China could be a wild card when it comes to U.S. corn demand. As their domestic stocks dwindle, opportunity for U.S. growers could present itself.
"The rumor is China bought 10 to 12 cargos of corn from the U.S. already and might be looking to buy even more," Flory says. "They have a plan in place to reduce stocks with ethanol and lower price over time, but the spread between imported corn into south Chinese feed mills is at a record level right now, that's why feed mills are turning down expensive domestic corn and saying they want to import it."

Fitch places Coface on Rating Watch Negative
The ratings agency estimates that the adverse effects of the coronavirus pandemic will have a negative impact on the trade credit insurance industry, and that it is now more likely that Coface's profitability, as measured by Fitch, will reach a level no longer compatible with the current rating.
The agency recognises that Coface has a robust solvency, and a pricing and risk management capacity that will reduce the impact of the economic crisis on its claims experience. It also notes that during previous crises, credit insurance has demonstrated its resilience and experienced a rapid rebound in profitability.
As a reminder, at the end of 2019, Coface benefited from a solvency ratio of 190%, higher than its target area of 155% -175%. Furthermore, and very early in the crisis, Coface significantly reduced the risk of its investment portfolio, which is currently made up of 22% liquidity compared to around 7% at the end of 2019. The fall in the financial markets has therefore not caused a reduction in solvency greater than the sensitivities communicated by the group.
In this uncertain period, Coface is working more closely than ever with its customers, and is taking multiple preventive actions on its risk portfolio.

In the summer of 1943 both Soviet and German High Commands gathered their strength for what they both believed would be a decisive battle.
The Germans assembled their most powerful divisions, freshly equipped with the latest equipment, to attack the north and south flanks of the salient around the city of Kursk. The Soviets, having deduced the German plan, cram their forces into the bulge, creating layer after layer of defensive positions to stop the German panzers in their tracks. Two titanic armies meet head on in the golden cornfields of Russia.
Battle of the Kursk is the first expansions for the action-packed tactical masterpiece Battle Academy 2. It focuses on the key events of the Soviet counteroffensive and can be played from both sides: capture the station at Ponyri, the "little Stalingrad", defend the road to Oboyan and launch the armoured charge at Prokhorovka.
Use the massive firepower of the German super heavy tanks to blast your way through the endless lines of trenches and bunkers or rally the Soviet defenders to hold out against the onslaught.
Battle Academy 2 - Battle of Kursk is an expansion for Battle Academy 2 and requires Battle Academy 2 to play

What is mhtml ?
For those who have never saved a complete web page in Internet Explorer, mhtml or its extensions .mht is most likely unknown. MHTML stands for MIME Encapsulation of Aggregate HTML Documents. Wikipedia describes it as a "web page archive format used to combine in a single document the HTML code and its companion resources that are otherwise represented by external links (such as images, Flash animations, Java applets, and audio files)".
It caused some troubles in the past, but I am not talking about those problems.
mhtml: handler - Internet Explorer
The mhtml handler can be used to specify a specific file inside a .mht file. It is used like this:
<img src="mhtml:http://example.com/file.mht!/image/image.jpg">
But it can do more than this. The interesting feature is how external links are implemented inside .mht files. It uses the x-usc: directive. This directive works always, no matter what file or what web page is addressed and also in the context of html pages. All you need is to specify the mhtml: handler.
Copy & paste the following url into the address bar of Internet Explorer:
Look closely at the requests IE will send. It will fetch google.com as well as bing.com, which is then displayed. This can be concatenated even more:
Side Note: Edge does not recognize mhtml: via Copy&Paste. But when you change the location via JavaScript to a mhtml: uri, it works the same as in IE.
Of course this feature can be used in img tags, iframe, embed etc. Also any redirects in any of the concatenated web sites will be followed.
Have Fun playing with this feature, I have not discovered any important vulnerability so far :/
