I have heard reference to the VSUM listing as a reference on the
characteristics of viruses.  I know I can download it off the McAfee
BBS and that it is a HyperText document, but I have never worked with
HyperText.  I know it is some sort of database, but nothing more than
that.  Once I would download the VSUM listing, what software would I
need to use it?  Will this software run on an 8088 or a 286/386 with
nothing more than Hercules Graphics?  Where can I get a copy of the
software?  Do I even have everything right about the VSUM listing?
