A disassembled copy of the "Stoned" virus was just posted to the comp.os.msdos.programmer newsgroup on Usenet. The virus is wll known, and disinfection programs are readily available, but the worrying part is that somebody might take the code and rewrite it a bit, so the virus would not be detectable by the virus scanners out there. A rather irresponsible act, in my opinion. - -frisk [Ed. The same copy was submitted to comp.virus as well, but will not be posted. As a rule, I will post neither virus code nor requests for virus code.]
