Yes, he finds a new variant of a virus called "Mr Twister.ow". I'm very  
surprised, than everybody at Dr Solomon's told me that only if Findvirus  
finds at least 2 Signatures it will show an alert message. I see, this is  
not the truth... :-(

Yes, it still works. But only, if you rename the "anti-vir.dat" file of  
tbav 8.01 to "antivir.dat". Esass know about that problem over nearly 3  
years - and has nothing done agaeinst it... :-(
