  25.                                       VIRUS!

  29.                                   KNOWN EFFECTS:
  30.  
  31.    Deletes Libraries - Usually those associated with using a comms program
  32.                        As well as all LIBS: used for 'requestors'.
  33.    For Example       - Xprzmodem.lib
  34.                        Iffparse.lib
  35.                        Reqtools.lib

  38.                               DISCOVERY OF THE VIRUS:
  39.  
  40.    When rebooting after using NComm or Term a requestor would pop up saying:
  41.                    "Hey, you!  I can't find the iffparse.library!"
  42.    When that library was re-copied over, others were found missing as well..
  43.  
  44. - [ ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ] -
  45.                          WHERE WILL YOU FIND THIS VIRUS ?
  46.  
  47.    The virus was finally indentified by: Virus_Checker 7.18 after scanning
  48.    my Prefs:Env-Arc/ drawer in a small text file called:
  49.                         
  50.                              "da last alert"
  51.  
  52.    We were unable to find out whether this was the file originally carrying
  53.    the virus, but we discovered that it was a file created by the program 
  54.    of the same name, "Last Alert" which, after a Software Failure, brings
  55.    up a window to explain what caused the Failure..
  56.  
  57.    The archive was originally downloaded from the AmiNet page itself about
  58.    Four months ago.. But for some unexplainable reason, the virus didn't
  59.    activate itself until this week.
  60.  
  61. - [ ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ] -
  62.  
  63.    The file and the original archive were deleted before further information
  64.    could be gathered on "The Dag Creator" virus.. Any further information
  65.    would be much appreciated and can be posted to:
