- This message is directed at all of you out there who are editors of regular
- computer magazines, Atari magazines, Atari club 'zines, the works.
- On December 12th 1997, it will be exactly 10 years ago that the first version
- of the "Ultimate Virus Killer" was released (even though at the time it was
- still known as "Virus Destruction Utility"). I would like this day not to go by
- unnoticed, so I would like as much press coverage as possible, most
- particularly in whatever issue you are releasing around the beginning of
- December. I am thinking of feature articles, a history of viruses on the ST,
- and possibly stuff on a cover disk (if there is one). In the latter context I
- am thinking of a demo version of the virus killer (I could make a preprod demo
- version of 8.0 well before December 12th), or a new version (updated and
- enhanced) of the "Ultimate Virus Killer Book" 'on disk version'. Reviews would
- also be much appreciated, although the anniversary version won't be finished
- until December 12th so you'd have to make do with version 7.1 that I finished
- about a week ago.
- I would also like to do something in the order of "UVK" discount offers for
- your readers or club members. Please contact me for details in case you want to
- undertake something.
- I don't want to do things twice and I would very much like to prevent two
- identical articles from appearing in two different magazines, unless they're
- published on different continents or in different languages. Stuff planned so
- far includes an "X-Files"-style history of viruses on the ST for "Atari
- Computing" in the UK and something similar for a German magazine (in German).
- I am available for any information you need, and also for interviews if you
- think that's a good idea. If you want me to do anything special (custom "UVK"
- demo versions, etc.), please make me aware of the deadline of the issue that's
- closest to early December so I know when to do stuff at my side of things.
