I recently down-loaded a file from a local BBS called MEGASPUP.ZIP which is flagged by SCAN58 as containing 2 viruses, 1701/1704 Ver B and Vacsina. This program is supposed to decrease disk access time, according to the documentation. Does anyone have any information about this file, such as its origin etc. Also, now what do I do with it, should I send it somewhere to be analysed ?
