[comp.sys.mac.announce] New ZUC C strain

jshul@baks.bell-atl.com (Jeff Shulman) (06/25/91)

There was yet another strain of the ZUC virus called ZUC C. At first glance
this strain is more or less the same as the previous two (ZUC A and ZUC B)
but is capable of infecting more applications than the others. It may be
isolated in Italy for the moment. VirusDetective 4.0.3a does NOT detect it.

The new VirusDetective search string to detect all three variations is:

Filetype=APPL & Resource Start & WData A746*A033*A042*A9F7 ; For finding
ZUC.Virus A, B & C

You should remove the old string and replace it with the one above. I will
be uploading VirusDetective 4.0.4 with this string built in as well as a new
search string file within a day or two. Note: 4.0.4. is just 4.0.3a with
this new search string added. There WILL be a version 5.0 (better looking,
more powerful, 7.0 icons, Balloon Help, etc.) coming soon (by summer's end).
