That should be a clue: if they're good anti-virus, they will intercept
any attempt to write to the boot sectors.
If they don't see anything happening, then they are either very poor
software, or (much more likely) there is some hardware failure going
on. It's not so much something writing bad data to the boot record,
as it is the machine failing to be able to read what is there.
I'd look for the usual loose cables, etc, then check out another
disk drive.
I don't think Euphoria will trash anything except files your
program opens, when you have gotten into some endless loop
and have to bail out. I've been doing some heavy programming and
database work with Euphoria for several months with no problem.
