[Adam.Frix@p2.f200.n226.z1.FIDONET.ORG (Adam Frix) writes:] [] For reasons no one cares about, I was fiddling around in Disinfectant [] 1.6 using Symantec Tools. While in the resource fork, at sector 21, [] offset 97, I found the word "fuck" stuck in there. Lowercase, all by [] itself. Now, this sounds real strange to me--I didn't expect this in this as you know, disinfectant looks for signatures (i.e. Hpat, nVIR etc.) and "fuck" is just another signature ... if you're _very_ concerned about tampering to disinfectant try to arrange to get a copy from the source listed in the application (i.e. norstad's home site). -dave- hairston@henry.ece.cmu.edu
