Hans please don't post this stuff, all we need are some swiss swine 
swaggering over their 'accomplishments.' Realize that there are 
commercial programs that have been delayed and possibly even cancelled
because this virus wiped out backups and masters alike. About the only
use of the above information I could sanction would be to use it to
backtrack the source to the puppies who started it and then get the
president to ok saturation bombing of the area.
