I'm glad that software put messages in their boot block. It would have been nice if it was a standard saying that this is a custom boot block needed for this game to run. I remember being 10 and destroying a trained copy of Golden Axe (With Dwarf buggy graphics) as I didn't know what type of boot block it was and I had just been blamed the day before for bring viruses to school, I didn't know what they were at the time.

Once I got a copy of LSD/Nuke, the amount of of my disks that had been infected by Saddam. I remember some later disks saying that it was not a virus and that it was indeed a custom loader.
