[comp.virus] The Telecomm Virus

55srwlgs@sacemnet.af.mil (55SRWLGS) (09/18/90)

	Got an interesting ad in today's mail. The flyer, from 1st
Defense Anti-Viral Systems of Broadview Heights, Ohio, announces the
discovery of a virus which uses the modem on your PC to run up your
phone bill. They call it the Telecomm Virus (V92), and remark that it
"has not previously been eported in 'the literature'".
	Fortunately, it was discovered in Texas by tow individuals
who, fortunately, had a copy of the 1st Defense package, available for
just $59.95 (no doubt reduced from the list price of $60.00 :+} ),
Ohio residents add 7%.
	Isn't it nice how the folks who discovered this new virus just
happened to have the correct anti-viral program loaded? Anyone want to
buy some underwater real estate in Florida? Alligators included at
minimal extra cost.
