[net.micro.pc] Trojan Horse Program

I have just found a new type of trojan horse program.

It works for quite a while and when the date is after a trigger date it trashes
your disk.  Called 'DSKCACHE'.  It actually works quite well but does some real
damage after 24-mar-85.

Be Warned.  It was taken off a BBS in the New York Area approx 4 months ago
and the person who picked it up doesn't remember which one!!!!

The prior posting's date was incorrect - should have been 24 mar 86.!!!!!

As far as i can tell the program destroys the FAT and the directory.
