After checking for viruses, I installed the Gatekeeper INIT/cdev recently
posted to comp.binaries.mac.  When I ran the cdev in the Control Panel,
the Mac crashed on closing the Control Panel.  It then refused to reboot
from that system, even after removing Gatekeeper and its log file from
the system folder.  I eventually found that the System file had been
corrupted (virus rx reported logical end of file encountered).

Setup: MacPlus, System 4.3, MultiFinder 1.0, Finder 6.0B1.  INITs: Facade,
JClock31.

Another problem with Gatekeeper is that the instructions for use are only
available by running the cdev and reading them in a tiny window.  ResEdit
cannot read the relevant TEXT resource (too big).  Why were the instructions
not posted as a text file?  (There was a text file with it, and some
information in the comp.binaries.mac message, but you have to read the
on-line help to find out what the checkboxes mean.)
