I was just talking to a reporter for a U.S. paper (calling from
Bulgaria!); he says that he's been told by at least two people that
the Dark Avenger (and/or other "Bulgarian" viruses) is very common in
certain parts of Europe.  One person, he says, tells him that he's
seeing several Dark Avenger reports per week.  Does this agree with
anyone else's observations?  We get rather few reports of the Dark
Avenger (or the VACSINA, or any other TPxxVIRs, or really any other
"Bulgarian" viruses); are there places (many places?) in the world
where these viruses are very common?
