 In news.announce.important warnings on an Internet virus were made.

It was expected only to infect SUN and Vaxen. It can partly infect an IBM
RT as well....at least to the extent that an RT can accept the virus files
and run at least one virus process. (We found the virus on most of our RTs.
We are running ACIS/AOS not AIX)

 It may not be virulent on an RT but sysops should know enough to check and
delete virus files and processes.
