As far as I know, only one company has received the AIDS diskette here
in Iceland. The name of that company was not obtained from any of the
mailing lists already mentioned.

This company is the Toshiba computer distributor here in Iceland. The
name of this company appears in various ads from Toshiba, where it
contains one (minor) error. The label contained the same error, so it
is safe to assume that those ads were the source used. I assume that
other companies mentioned in the Toshiba ads also received the trojan.

And yes - They had thrown the envelope away, but said it had been
posted in Panama.
