The following is forwarded from John McAfee:

	SCAN Version 53 has a serious problem with false alarms on the 4096
virus.  The version was unfortunately included in the last-minute monthly
FidoNet distribution and is therefore in the hands of a lot of people.  If
you have version 53 of SCAN please do not use it.  Version 54 is available
on CompuServe, Homebase and most of the Fidonet hubs.  My apologies to
anyone inconvenienced by my error.
