At a meeting yesterday some people made comments that some viruses
have been found in shrink-wrapped diskettes.  This did surprise me as
we have been using a rule of thumb to stick to shrink wrapped software
to help avoid viruses.  What comments &/or advice do you have for this
situation?
       Thanks, Craig

PS: I almost typed shrink warpped...interesting freudian slip!
