(PC? No system given) Message-ID: <0006.8906281416.AA11501@spot.CC.Lehigh.EDU> Date: 27 Jun 89 19:57:37 GMT Sender: Virus Discussion List Reply-To: VIRUS-L@IBM1.CC.Lehigh.EDU Lines: 11 Approved: virus-l@ubu.cc.lehigh.edu Yesterday and today articles about a new virus appeared in an Israeli paper (Maariv). It seems that the virus (some sort of a TSR maybe ?) is planting typos (i.e typing mistakes) when printing to the printer. It does not affect the screen or the data on disk itself. It was even claimed that it is a mutant of the "bouncing ball" virus. Anyone heard of such virus. Has anyone been hit by that beast - or is it just the cucamber season again ??
