Due to the recent flap about viruses, I gave a talk about protection at a local user group meeting, and distributed about 40 copies of viruscan, including putting a copy on my BBS. I am happy to say that I am not a user of the program, since I run UNIX, but I have tried it, am impressed, and do provide it to any PC user who wishes it. Well done, for what it's worth! - --- bill davidsen (davidsen@crdos1.crd.GE.COM -or- uunet!crdgw1!crdos1!davidsen) "The world is filled with fools.
