On the subject about viruses, I recently got a copy of a program called
'fire' or 'fireplace' (or something like that).  Nothing showed up using SCAN
and I used LIST to look at the codes.  I saw lots of unusual messages in there
and I deleted the file immediately.  (I didn't run it).  I wasn't sure if it was
a normal program or someone was up to something nasty.  Anybody know what's
that program about?  Any bugs/virus?
