I actually read about a company which released a program with a virus in it. 
If the program detected a change in HDD serial number or something like that 
(something that indicated the software had been pirated), then the virus was 
released into the system :-)

The BBS scene is suffering from a major problem - decline. It's a universal
problem, not just limited to FidoNet. There is a way to a bigger, better BBS
scene. You can be a part of it. Join INTBBS_WK now, and share the many ideas.
