Does any one know of any UUCP/news sites in West Africa? My father is living over there and is interested in either getting a feed, or an account on a relatively nearby machine with a feed. Any pointers greatly appreciated, Paul Lalonde ...!{watmath|uunet|utai}!dalcs!dalcsug!lalonde OR BITNET: 05LALOND@DALAC OR BITNET(again): 05LALOND@ac.dal.ca

According to the UPI wire service: "USSR Acknowledges Computer Viruses In Computers MOSCOW -- The Soviet Union said yesterday that so-called computer viruses have invaded systems in at least five government-run institutions since August, but scientists said they have developed a way to detect known viruses and prevent serious damage." Although a "rash" of jokes immediately suggest themselves, I shall restrain myself and send them to rec.humor instead. But, I do wonder: do they include our favorite Worm, or are they all home-grown Soviet?
