______________________________
THE PURPOSE OF THIS PATCH FILE

This file updates VirusScan for Macintosh v3.0.0 to
VirusScan for Macintosh v 3.0.0a. The patch improves
VirusScan's detection and cleaning performance for 
files infected with the CAP macro virus.

____________
KNOWN ISSUES
  
1.  When it first encounters a file infected with the
    Concept macro virus, VirusScan cleans it partially,
    rendering it unable to replicate and spread. On
    subsequent scans, VirusScan may again identify
    the portion of the virus code remaining in the file
    and report it as infected. Clean the file again to
    remove all remaining virus code.
