After running Seagate's Low level format \ verify utility on this AT drive
for the fourth time and with a extremely comprehensive 9 pattern check

Dos didn't see it, Norton Utilities Disk Doctor didn't see it . so using
NU8 Disk Editor I found the cluster that the sector was located in and
manually marked it bad. Everything is running fine now.
