- The file CRC.ADS is the latest update of all
- the little BBS ads that I have found to date.
- One of the new ones, SHOWME.BAT, is from the
- Ultimate Data Shareware Library. I'm a little
- leary of the name SHOWME.BAT, but I've included
- it anyways. You be the judge as to whether or
- not you want to keep it.

- ----------
- There are 2 entries for BOBS.DIS; one is
- the BOBS.DIS when his board was a TRITEL
- and the other is the newest representing
- his board as a PCBoard BBS.
-
- 07-28-1992
- ----------
- There are now 3 entries for BOBS.DIS.
- The latest is for the change
- reflecting the use of SCAN93 as his
- virus checking program.
-
- 09-16-1992
- ----------
- There are 23 new BBS ads in this months
- update. BOBS.DIS has the distinction of
- 6 different ads with the same name. What a
- guy! I've been informed that the BBS ad file
- called AMIGASUK.EXE contains a trojan and when
- run to completion, wipes out your FAT. I'm
- not going to run it to find out, but be
- advised in case you happen to encounter it.

- ----------
- There are 41 new entries in this months
- update. BOBS.DIS has 7 entries now, but I've been
- informed by Bob that he has ceased including these
- ads in his files. Several of the BBS ads now
- have duplicate entries, each with a different CRC
- value. These guys must be running out of new
- names to use! :)
-
- 11-28-1992
- ----------
- Only 3 new ads in this release. There are now 2
- formats of the file ads files. CRC.ADS is for use
- with ZIPLAB and ZDCS-BBA.NDX is for use with ZDCS.
-
- 02-06-93
- --------
- There are about 35 new ads in this update. I'm still
- including the 2 file formats for use with ZIPLAB and
- ZDCS.
-
- The beta ZIPLAB 2.0 (ZL2B0331.ZIP) now directly interfaces
- with ZDCS Version 2.01. Jeff Morley appears to have nailed
- down the problem of speed that he was having with ZIPLAB when
- it was checking for ads. I'm currently using both of these
- programs and they fly. I strongly reccomend using and
- registering both of them.
-
- Some of the add file names contain characters that cause
- the new version of PKZIP to hang. I was informed of this
- this by a local Sysop who was watching as I uploaded a file
- loaded with ads. These 2 ads in particular caused PKZIP to
- wait for an acknowledgement before proceeding:
-
- 136DBBA4,--%AVS
- F82B4F2B,-README.INF
-
- I have not included them in the CRC.ADS file because of this.
