WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!
--------------------------------------------------------------------
There is a file being circulated on BBS's called PKZ120.ZIP or
PKZ120.EXE or similar, and that claims to be version 1.20 of
PKZIP but in fact is a hacked version of PKZIP 1.10.
As of the date of this writing, the latest version of PKZIP is
version 1.10. Furthermore, due to this intentional act of
vandalism, PKWARE will not release any versions of PKZIP in the
future with the version 1.20.
If you see the files PKZ120.ZIP or PKZ120.EXE on any BBS or
on-line system, please ask the SysOp of that system to remove
the files IMMEDIATELY, and please contact PKWARE to report
where the files were seen.
REWARD!
-------
PKWARE is offering a reward of lifetime free upgrades for PKZIP
to anyone who can provide information leading to the
identification and prosecution of the person or persons
responsible for creating this bogus version 1.20 of the
software. They have only served to confuse and hurt the user
community, and the perpetrators of this crime are at minimum in
violation of Federal Copyright Law.
If you have any information about the source of PKZ120.EXE or
PKZ120.ZIP, please report it to PKWARE immediately, either:
