[comp.virus] anti-virus software accessibility

IA96%PACE.BITNET@VMA.CC.CMU.EDU (IA96000) (09/23/89)

some universities have no pratical way of allowing students or
faculty to download software acquired over the network. this
can be a problem for many reasons.

i know that homebase exists, however to call there once a week or
so to obtain the latest copies of the viral software packages can
get to be expensive.

does anyone know of any reliable bbs in the new york area which
maintains copies of the latest viruscan, etc; programs?

if not, i would be willing to make copies and distribute them to
anyone who sends a disk and return postage. of course, this is
only if mr. mcafee would give his permission, and if i can get
clean copies to begin with.
