INTERNET VIRUS ALERT
A virus has been discovered on the Internet that is disguised as CD-ROM
shareware. Unknown hackers have illegally put the Chinon name on the
destructive shareware file and released it on the Internet. This catastrophic
virus is named "CD-IT" -- DO NOT DOWNLOAD. IT WILL CORRPUPT YOUR HARD DRIVE.
The program allegedly a shareware PC utility that will convert an ordinary
CD-ROM drive in to a CD-Recordable (CD-R) device, which is technically
impossible, instead destroys critical system files on a user's hard drive.
The program also immediately crashes the CPU, forces the
user to reboot and stays in memory. Widest dissemination
is requested.
