I recently posted a message about Telix Ver 4.1 Ultra. I got quite a
negitive resoponce. People thought I was trying to protect copyright laws. I
was just trying to keep my friend's dumb ass out of trouble. The letter I was
posting was about 4.1 ULTRA not 4.25 or PKZIP. I got letters saying I was a
dumb ass and was going to get sewed for using and distributing PKZIP 2.1 BETA.
It was a response to the letter. I have included a file direct from Exis
Autenticly Verified about 4.25. I now use Ver. 3.20 from deltaCOMM.

Notes on "Telix 4.25" -- 13 February 1992
Recently a bored and talentless individual decided to poke around the
Telix 3.15 code and support files, changing every occurance of "3.15" to
"4.25", and changing all copyright dates to 1992. No other changes were
made, and the program is functionally the same.
Please be assured that this is NOT a release from Exis Inc. It does not
appear to have any virii or trojan horses, though we will not guarantee
this. The current version of Telix as released by Exis is v. 3.15,
released on April 2nd, 1991. The real Telix will contain a PKZIP
Authenticity Verification of:

Authentic files Verified! # WYC665 Thanks for using this Exis product!
The Telix Technical Support BBS now has three lines and 3 US Robotics Dual
Standard HST/v.32 modems in a ring-down cycle at 416-439-9399.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please do not call and ask if 4.25 is a real version. It is not.
Calls and BBS messages (both in the echoes and on our BBS as above)
inquiring about this do nothing more than swamp the Exis staff
(including programmers) and thus delay legitimate releases.
Any real release from Exis Inc, will also be widely publicized in
advance of release. In other words, if any new version of Telix is
posted to a BBS, you'll know that it's the real McCoy.
Thanks for helping to keep Telix the best comm software around by
spreading this file around as much as possible.
