I have heard that from a friend also. I had him verify the RASCAL copy and it is reported O.K. RASCAL is also a definitive Disinfectant site (the copy comes direct from John) as well as GateKeeper site, so you can do one-stop shopping for all your anti-viral needs. /mac/virus/Disinfectant/Disinfectant_3.4_SEA_bin /mac/virus/Gatekeeper/Gatekeeper_1.3_SIT_bin P.S.: the last version (1.3) released for GateKeeper is NOT EFFECTIVE against the INIT-9403 virus -- though it might alert you that something fishy is going on... an update for GateKeeper became necessary, but Chris is taking his time to make sure it gets done right (have you send him a postcard yet? it might help to keep him motivated!) -- "Free Advice and Opinions -- Refunds Available" --> Still mad about Tiananmen Square, but Bosnia has me fuming also !!! <-- (please email courtesy copy of follow-up articles to: werner@cs.utexas.edu) .
