VIRUS-PLEA 1/4

Hello, my name is Bill Hadley.  I would like to ask a favor of the readers
of VIRUS-L.  I am doing research (which will hopefully become a book) on
computer viruses and computer security.  I what I would like you to do, is
to write me a letter if you have ever had an experience with a virus or trojan
horse program.  What I would ask that you include in your letter is:

                Name of the Virus or Trojan Horse.
                What computer and operating system does
                   this virus/trojan horse exist on.
                What did the virus/trojan horse do.
                How did you deal with it.
                Where did this happen (ie. George Mason
                   University in Fairfax, Virginia...or
                   company name..whatever..).
                What is your name (if you don't mind if I
                   put it in a section of names in the back
                   of my book).

If you would please answer these questions and send them directly to
me, WLHADLEY@GMUVAX.GMU.EDU (not VIRUS-L), I would greatly appreciate it.
This will assist me on trying to track what viruses have spread and how.
If you have had problems with more than one of these evil programs, then
answer these questions for each virus/trojan in your letter (even the
Internet Worm which struck last November).  If more than one person writes
me from one node with the same information, that is okay...it will help me
in the verification of virus reports.  Please only answer this message once.
I will try to post it once a month for the next three or four months to try
to catch new readers.  I realize that I will receive alot of mail, I have
already tried to make room for that.  I thank you in advance for your
assistance.  I will post to the list any thing I find of urgent importance
to the readers of VIRUS-L.

Again, thank you for your time.

Bill Hadley
