[comp.virus] AntiCad virus ?

Does anyone have any useful information on the AntiCad virus.
Accorrding to the list by Patricia Hoffman, "AntiCad" is just an alias
for the V-1 virus, but I have received a virus from Dr. Alan Solomon,
which is named ANTICAD.EXE and is clearly something entirely
different.

This virus is 10005 byte long, seems to contain bits and pieces from
the Jerusalem virus - possibly even multiple copies of it, and is not
at all related to the V-1 virus.

Any information on the origin of the "AntiCad" name would be appreciated.
