Subject: toms - black spot

I had black spot on my toms last year, and naively left the 
old plants in my winter mulch.  I know that I should move
toms, potato(e)s and peppers elsewhere this year.

My questions are:
- Is one year elsewhere enough to eliminate the virus (fungus?)?
- Can I use a commercial cure (designed to be put on the plants)
  in the soil in anticipation of replanting?  (ie do they work
  prophylactically and/or on the bug when in soil?)

TIA,
Heather
