I've seen quite a number of references to viruses, and to a program called
VKILLER.  Is this a public domain program?  I've been downloading quite
a bit of software recently, and it scares me to think that something
corrupting may have come along with one of the files.  It's doubly scary
to hear that a disk included with ST User may have included a virus.

Any suggestions of precautions/checks I should routinely be taking to
avoid problems?  I've been having trouble with intermitent corrupted
3 1/2" directories, and this has me worrying.

Gosh, just what I need: a new way to be paranoid.

Thanks,

Phil Z
