Has anyone heard about a (potentially) new virus called the "Bear" virus? I indirectly saw a posting about this virus on Prodigy, in the Mac Software area, which is supposed to "trash hard drives". The person who posted the message said that the only solution was to reformat the drive. He didn't actually isolate the virus, he just saw its effects. At this point, this should be treated as an unconfirmed rumor. Can anyone shed some light? - -- Jim Warthman - -- Internet: WARTHMAN@SOFTVAX.RADC.AF.MIL - -- America On Liine: AFC JimW
