Steven Grimm sent me a clean copy (Thanks Steven).

I found the one character that was corrupted and report, in
case you also had the same problem.

The posted version "vkiller.uaa" (as I received it) had this line:
MD 32D@J4@"PC00\,P ( \),!8 848 '<8 '<  =< /L3P  4  "Y8@%2P BMd

I seems that it should have been:
MD 32D@J4@"PC00\,P ( \),!8 848 '<8 '<  =< /D3P  4  "Y8@%2P BMd

If you have trouble de-ARCing VKILLER, check the UUencoded source,
and see if it has the string "L3P" in it.  If so, try replacing that
one letter "L" with a "D" and try again.
