Three 5.25" DSDD floppies in my possession are reported by ViruScan
0.7V42 to be infected with the Disk Killer virus.  Since my system
is reported to be clean by ViruScan, and these were the disks I had
with me on a recent visit to Montreal, I am assuming that that is
where the infection came from.  I am in the process of notifying
the owners of the machines with which these disks had contact, and
will post again when the source is identifed.

Alan Roberts' statement in VIRUS-L of 26 Sept 89 is the only information
I have been able to find on Disk Killer.  Any info will be appreciated.
