I wrote this program some time ago, and the version I had posted to usenet
was not a trojan nor viral at all.  The icon, however, is not the most
attractive one I'll admit -- it's a small representation of one of the output
displays of a fractal contour.  Kind of a gnarly looking cocked triangle with
squiggly diagonal lines in it.  Since I did the classic no-no and didn't
check out 'frak' from Apple I guess it's possible that something else could
be conflicting with it.  (I found out later that Apple had reserved all-
lower-case creator types for itself.) Alternately, your copy could have
become damaged (or tampered with -- can you shrink-seal the cap of software?)
Even your Desktop file might be damaged.  Does ResEdit show the icon within
FC to be the same as what the Finder shows?  By the way, FC was Public Domain
with sources posted with the binary (Aztec C).  It was my vehicle for
learning Mac programming, and had no other reason for existence.
