Hello everyone,

Today I ran into a problem that can be serious, and if somebody can
forward this message to Mac Afee & Associate, thanks.

Here it is:
 a friend of mine show me a file that was infected by the "Whale" virus. Scann
 v75 reports it, good. BUT when I run clean v75 on that file, NOTHING ! Clean
 didn't report any virus at all. I was happy to have clean v74b at hand and it
 identify and kill that damned virus.

I think all of ours are interested...

Best regards and happy computing,
- --Ollivier
