[comp.virus] Obtaining McAfee programs

ACSMARTIN@EKU.BITNET (Bob Martin) (12/04/90)

Folks,

John McAfee, et.al. has released the latest version of their anti-virus
programs. The release numbers are Scanv71, Cleanp71, & Vshld71. I
believe the release date was 01-Dec-1990.

For those of you that are concerned about getting ONLY McAfee's programs
- -- the number to his BBS is --> 408 988-4004  -- there are eight 2400
baud lines.

I will also be happy to send the files across the net, but that may
asking too much from the network.... :)

[Ed. Also, see next message...]

	I called the number you mentioned and found two
	newer versions of these programs, i.e. SCANV71B
	and CLEANP71B.. also, the 71 versions are now
	already "old"..

[Ed. This is true.  I called McAfee Associates and was told that
version 71B contains a couple bug fixes.]
