I have just recieved a virus that is supposed to come from the Federation
again'st software theft. If this virus is from them, then they are just as
much ar**holes as the pirates they are trying to stop.
The following message appears as an alert

	    W A R N I N G
If you pirate software you are a thief.
Thieves will be prosecuted.
Any information should be passed to:
The Federation Against Software Theft
Telephone: +44-1-240-6756

This message is encoded and the virus will copy itself to any disk that is
having the bootblock written to it.
