I have just been warned by some people here at Apple that a new Trojan Horse has been discovered. The INIT 'STEROID', which supposedly speeds up QuickDraw on a 9" monitor, has a time bomb in it that will cause it to erase any mounted volumes when it is booted after June 6, 1990 (that's Wednesday). The program has been disassembled here at Apple and the actions have been confirmed. IF YOU HAVE STEROID ON YOUR SYSTEM, DISABLE IT IMMEDIATELY. The details: Type INIT, Creator qdac, Code size 1080, data size 267, File Name " Steroid", name "Quickdraw Accelerator" More data when I have it. chuq Chuq Von Rospach <+> chuq@apple.com <+> [This is myself speaking] It isn't easy being green. -- Kermit
