Following the recent infections at Oxford University (see article from
A.Appleyard - 16/5/91) I've been trying to find scanners to detect
these viruses.  (I understand there are two forms of this: one boot
sector version, one file version.)

Having checked the documentation of the F-PROT (1.14) & McAfee SCAN (v77)
packages, I don't find any reference to these.  So:

	1)  How can Spanish Telecom be detected ?

	2)  Which virus detection/removal packages can deal
	    with Spanish Telecom ?

	3)  What signature strings can be added to programs
	    such as F-PROT & SCAN that allow user-defined signatures ?

Any help would be appreciated !

If you mail responses to me, I'll summarise.

Many thanks,

Aidan Saunders
