chrisj@emx.utexas.edu (Chris Johnson) (08/07/90)

Gatekeeper Aid 1.0.2 has finally been released.  A brief descrip-
tion of this new version and where it can be obtained follows.



Gatekeeper Aid is a Startup document (INIT) designed to auto-
matically hunt and kill all known strains of the WDEF virus, as
well as possible future strains and related viruses.  It should
be used to augment the Gatekeeper anti-virus system and may
also be used to augment other anti-virus tools.

Version 1.0.2 of Gatekeeper Aid is designed to correct a number
of problems that surfaced in version 1.0.1.  A complete list of
these problems is included in the documentation.  In addition,
version 1.0.2 improves Gatekeeper Aid's protections and adds
some new features including the ability to retroactively correct
a bug in existing versions of Gatekeeper that is responsible for
about 90% of all the Internal Errors reported.

Users of Gatekeeper Aid are strongly encouraged to upgrade to
this latest version.  Users of anti-virus systems that don't
automatically detect AND REMOVE the WDEF virus are strongly
encouraged to use Gatekeeper Aid to augment their current systems.

Also included with Gatekeeper Aid 1.0.2 is a document which pro-
vides a quick preview of Gatekeeper 2.0.

Gatekeeper Aid 1.0.2 has been sent to comp.binaries.mac, as well
as to the info-mac and simtel archives.  It is immediately available
from ix1.cc.utexas.edu and ix2.cc.utexas.edu (take your pick); it
lives in the microlib/mac/virus directory.
