i thought i'd try asking you first since you've been of great help to us
in csd.  a large local company has been afflicted with a macintosh virus
over the past few days which apple claims to have never seen before.  it
evades cleanup with Disinfectant 1.1.  it apparently affects the resource
fork of various files in the system folder which disallows the system to
access its pointers.  the result is that you can't throw these away and
the memory remains allocated.  this beastie has also randomly destroyed
various personal folders.  they found no pattern in what was missing;
they also found no new mysterious files.  no other major clues.
