. . . . I noticed that the icon for the DA Handler in my system folder has changed from the normal icon of the little box with the apple on it to a plain document icon. I'm running system 6.0 and finder 6.1 under Multifinder. I have not noticed any problems and I am running Vaccine, which has been silent so far, but I remember that some viri have a tendency to change the icons of some system files, and even the author of Vaccine says that Vaccine's not foolproof. So I thought I'd ask if anyone knows if this might be a symptom of some new virus, or if it's (as I suspect) "just one of those things". :->.
