Surprise! Guess what! It's up to 3.1 now! :-)
3.0 had a problem - it didn't install virus-infected disks when you
asked it to and it over-reported the number of disks that'd been checked.
3.1 fixes those and adds two MORE viruses (so it checks for NINE of them
now....sigh).  Judging by the number of viruses at Steve Tibbett's house,
I'm going to get some booster shots if I ever go visit him.
