[comp.virus] *WARNING* [stoned] on demo disk

BDANIEL%USCN.BITNET@uga.cc.uga.edu (12/11/90)

I just got off the phone with Mark (the owner!) of LAN Source
Technologies Distributing.  He is personally calling everyone who
received the infected diskette.  Only 20 went out.  It seems someone
made a mistake on their last day of working at the company and sent
infected diskettes out.  Mark said that they have a copy of the McAfee
Associates software.  He appoligized repeatedly and I feel like WE CAN
TRUST that they are NEVER going to let a virus go out on a disk again.
So the *WARNING* can be mostly recalled. He asked if there was
anything he could do for me and I was tempted to ask for a free full
blown copy of the software but I desided to tell him "Just keep the
viruses off of your disks". My advice is to scan anything you get from
any place.  And of course, register the virus scanning software.
