Hi everyone. I posted a note last week about the availability of VIRUSCAN on HomeBase and we have been literally swamped ever since with requests for information and downloads. Unfortunately, HomeBase is a small-town country-atmosphere BBS with a single data line and we cannot support the volume of requests that we've had. Also, I am a nyophyte at using Usenet and Unix and cannot navigate well enough to even upload or download data. If there is some kind and generous user of Virus-L that could get a copy off of HomeBase and somehow make it available through SIMTEL (whatever that is) or some other medium, we would be eternally grateful. As for the rest of you, I would like to ask that you not call HomeBase for the file, but have patience and wait for it to be made available some other way. Thanks, and the regular users of HomeBase (who are currently up in arms 'cause they can't get on) thank you too. Alan Roberts HomeBase - 408 988 4004

The new version of viruscan is now available through the anti-viral archives. Note that this version is called SCANV26.ARC, and replaces the old versions of VIRUSCAN.ARC. Check an archive site near you. (You do save those listings of archive sites, don't you? :-) Jim Wright jwright@atanasoff.cs.iastate.edu
