Hi Asher!
Answering a message from Asher Densmore-Lynn to Klaus Kulbarsch:
AD> Trust not virus echoes.
Never. If any I'll trust an *ANTI-VIRUS* echo. VIRUS.GER is kind of that.
Furthermore:
I don't trust an echo - I trust the one who's writing.
AD> McAfee does -too- perform a self-check.
Must be a pretty poor one. The guy who tried it out, Anreas Marx, changed
some bytes in the data-segment and even in the code-segment of SCAN 3.00.
Nothing happened, SCAN started and said ......... nothing.
Then he tried a real infection with a 'living' VIRUS ........ *NOTHING!!!!*
He tried the same with F-Prot 2.27 and Dr.Solomons Findviru - both were
crying hell and devil and claiming for a reboot!
AD> You're advised to -use- the program in question before reporting
AD> incorrect assumptions.
I'm advised only to do what *I* think is correct and nothing else ;-).
Greetings from Wiesmoor (Germany)
