I read on Applelike today (7-7-90) that there is a 
posible trojan horse warning on the east coast.
The Programs names are Fontfinder and mosaic.

THESE ARE DESTRUCTIVE! they will erase your
any mounted volumes(hard disk or floppies)
and rename them Gotcha. I think Fontfinder
is set to go off at a certain date.

I left the article at home and I will post it
tomorrow unless someone else posts it first.

I just want to prewarn you about these programs.

I am writing this from memory so I am not
positive of these names.
