[comp.virus] April Fool's Day virus

viki@crash.cts.com (Victoria Harkey) (04/05/91)

There was a posting on April 2 regarding a trojan horse that had activated
on April 1, and was now a full force virus. Has this virus been identified?
Has anyone been able to get rid of it?

I need this info fast. Please help.

E-mail or news group comp.virus is fine with me.

There was?  I don't recall/find any such posting.  Perhaps it was a
forged posting, local to your site, and someone's playing an elaborate
joke on you?  If not, and you're actually seeing symptoms of
something, perhaps you could post more details?  DC
