Hi, Rob;
RD>> I just got this mess cleaned up from a viral infuction picked up from
RD>> a demo version of some software off a CDROM. Lesson learned. Next time
BK> You inform the people who _made_ the disk? I've had a couple demos show
up
BK> with viruses and the like - and it turned out to have originated from
he
RD>
RD> Did so Brendan.
RD> Their `customer service' rep flat out denied that -their- product was
RD> at fault in any way and then said I had gotten it from somewhere else.
RD> I did a little test on the demo by dumping it onto a hard-drive in a
RD> back-up system of a friend's and running MacAfee's scan on the
RD> hard-drive. Scan found the little critter in 14 files on the drive.
RD> Case closed.
YIKES! I would GREATLY appreciate it if you would tell me WHAT program
and CD-ROM it was so I, (and others), can avoid it like the plague! I
CANNOT afford a virus on either of my systems!
