"  I heard a rumour that the Word Perfect disks for the ST in August 1989
contained a virus. I know I have had some problems with WP, while a
friend describes his as "rock solid." He tells me that a later version
of VKILLER (I believe 2.2) is necessary to identify and remove this
virus."

    All six disks from WordPerfect that were sent to me have no
virus critters at all.  My August 1989 disks were mailed to me in
December.  Let's be careful about rumor propagation.  In many cases
that is worse than a virus.
    And, as usual, a call to WordPerfect's 800 number will clear
anything up:  problems, unclear instuctions, etc.
