It's always possible someone put a virus into MacPuke, but there is a way to
tell -- there's a new DA called Virus Detective which examines files for
various things. It has some documentation on detecting nVIR and the Case
virus, supposedly. I'll upload it to comp.mac.binaries (please, no e-mail
requests for a copy -- I don't want to be a clearing house for these
things).
Frankly, I think the whole issue is ridiculously hyped, but there are some
nice tools coming out for detecting these things. Besides, Vaccine is a
pretty good general purpose detector.

What do you think about
equal pay? I could just
