S. Ring has badtrans virus - test-drb@ccmp.vtda.org

28 Nov 2001

	Well, my Norton is set to automatically update every week. Also, as
soon as I heard about it (badtrans) on Tuesday morning (when I came back
...
 from being out since last wednesday) I updated the
latest virus definitions, to the 11/24 version. Not sure if earlier defs knew about
it...

! Was it prescient enough to detect Badtrans.b?  If Badtrans.b is a new
