Steve has also posted it to Compuserve as file 'VIRUSX.LZH'.  It was posted
on 27-Nov-89 and is 63939 bytes in length.  It is version 4.0.  Since there
seem to be alot of fake copies going around, I would suggest getting it from
there or from BIX.  I was bitten by the BSG-9 virus which is the one that
replaces your first executable file in your 'Startup-Sequence'.  The file on
Compuserve is in the AMIGATECH area under New Uploads (library 1).
