Word on CIS has it that there is a new SCA virus called LSD.  It supposedly
is an apology for the SCA and removes the SCA virus from an infected disk.
What it actually does is removes the SCA, but replaces it with a more clever
and harder to find virus that affects any disk any time, not just at bootup.
It is said, however, to use the boot block trick which is fortunate for us.
I BELIEVE vcheckx.x's can find it.  To Bill Koester:  Do you have any info
on this rumor?
