[comp.virus] periodic sighting report

krvw@cert.sei.cmu.edu (Kenneth R. van Wyk) (11/05/90)

It's been a while since I sent one of these periodic reports out.
Sorry for the delay.

The following new, or otherwise important, virus infections were
reported recently:

- - Ping Pong (PC) reported in Ottawa, Canada.

- - Yale/Alameda and Joshi (PC) in Detroit, MI.

- - Stoned/Marijuana and Joshi (PC) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

- - 1554 (PC) reported in California.

- - BITNET TERM MODULE worm (for lack of a better "name") (IBM VM/CMS)
  was reported at a small number of sites (~3-4).  If anyone else has
  seen this, please report it to me.  I'm very interested in finding
  out if this is still active.

These sightings were reported to me; they are in addition to the other
reports that have appeared on VALERT-L and/or VIRUS-L.  When possible,
I have phoned at least one contact in the area to verify the
sightings.
