(PC) Message-ID: <0012.9010291826.AA04361@ubu.cert.sei.cmu.edu> Date: 24 Oct 90 21:18:33 GMT Sender: Virus Discussion List Lines: 18 Approved: krvw@sei.cmu.edu Hi people - has anyone heard of this virus? (Mcafee's "SCAN" doesnt recognize it) All around my hard drive, directories with the names "DELETED" are appearing which is getting very annoying. (thats virus #1) The second, perhaps related, perhaps not, does the following - it erases file from my hard drive, and leaves only one character in the file. (Hex e5) If anyone has ever heard of theses, or knows of a de-viruser that might help me out - PLEASE get in touch with me ASAP. thanks VERY much in advance - Jeff Klavan (klavan@emerald.rutgers.edu) PS - virus alert: Mcafee scan v68 is a VIRUS/TROJAN. do NOT use it.
