    To all those experts out there,

       I'm  trying to  compile a  calendar,  specificing just those  virusses
    that hit on [a]  certain day[s], like Payday on every friday except 13th.
    I already have the list from VSUM.
    
    I think I have heard others on this list trying to do the same, but never
    heard  anything about a  completed (as far as that's  possible, with viri
    getting created in bunches .. :-( ) one.
    
    So, I would like al of you who gave up (?), or just have some information
    to e-mail me.  At the  moment, I'm  compiling month by month, and think I
    got next Februari covered ...
    
    Second, is there a way to scan the VIRUS-L backlogs.  Listserv@lehigh did
    not understand my mails (I got several ideas from HELPNET, but no way ..)
    I just wanted to find the ones containing "calendar" or something similar

[Moderator's note: Yes, there is a way to scan the backlogs.  All
postings to VIRUS-L/comp.virus, since day one, are archived on
cert.org in pub/virus-l/archives.  The old listserv@lehiibm1 no longer
has any VIRUS-L archives on it.]
    
    Third, a Dutch  magazine  mentioned the Hymn virus, which seems to hit on 
    the day with the same number as the month, so Jan. 1th, Feb. 2nd, etc ...
    VSUM and F-prot did not know about it ?!?

    aTdHvAaNnKcSe,
