U953001@RUTVM1.BITNET (Nick DiGiovanni) (08/01/90)

Business Week, July 23, p.30 ('Killer' Computer Viruses: An Idea Whose
Time Shouldn't Come, Mark Lewyn) reports the DOD's Center for Signals
Warfare (CSW) has received 19 proposals from software companies and
developers to create computer viruses that infiltrate and destroy
enemy communications systems.  Seems things are moving along nicely
towards development of a software version of the Andromeda Strain.
