Danny Schwender of ETH Zuerich recently analyzed the new ANTI virus and mentioned that ANTI gets past Vaccine if the "Always compile MPW INITs" option is turned on. I've tested INIT 29 and discovered that it too gets past Vaccine if "Always compile MPW INITs" is turned on. I tested on a Mac II and on a Mac SE, with and without MultiFinder, and got the same results each time - with the MPW INITs option turned off Vaccine prevents INIT 29 infections, but with MPW INITs turned on it permits the infection.
