Enclosed is a mail message written by a fellow consultant. When it first appears, it's just a form of the nVIR virus which AntiPan works very well to eradicate. But it seems to be a self modifying code which causes it to mutate to an unrecognizable form. SO, what do we do about it, you ask? Well, we have had exceedingly good success in both TAGGING and ERADICATING the virus with a program called SYMANTEC ANTI-VIRUS CLINIC. If the virus is tagged, it can be eradicated with AntiPan, or it can be eradicated with SAM, the SYMANTEC ANTI-VIRUS CLINIC. So when people bring you their disks to have checked, please run SAM on them. It's very easy, there will be instructions at the desk. Copies of this message and an infected application will be sent to all those who requested copies, and any others who also ask. This is _not_ an endorsement of any sort for SAM, or Anti-pan.
