Another newcomer on the Macintosh virus scene, this virus first appeared in France. This virus is more insidious than previous viruses in that it doesn’t create any new resources, it simply modifies existing ones.
Prevention programs like GateKeeper, RWatcher or Vaccine will successfully prevent infections. Also the latest versions of Virus Detective have the ability to detect this type of virus. The program Disinfectant has the capability to both find and remove ANTI.

There is however a restriction with Vaccine: If “Always compile MPW INITs” is unchecked, it will beep and wait that the user presses ‘y’ (allow resource copy) or
‘n’ (don't allow copy). If the option is checked, Vaccine will allow the infection without warning the user. So be careful if you use that option.
