I'm sorry, but I resent that inuendo!  I got my first virus from the
store that I bought my Amiga from!  My original copy of WB was bad, so
they recopied theirs for me and it had a virus!  It took a friend and
VirusX to get rid of it for me!  I've picked up two other viruses from
PD stuff (which is most of what I have).  And have you ever gone to a
user group meeting?  Remember there are many sources for viruses other
than pirating!  Assuming anyone with a virus is a pirate is like
assuming anyone that has AIDS is homosexual!  It's just rediculous and
has little to do with reality!
