The file CRC.ADS is the latest update of all
the little BBS ads that I have found to date.
One of the new ones, SHOWME.BAT, is from the
Ultimate Data Shareware Library. I'm a little
leary of the name SHOWME.BAT, but I've included
it anyways. You be the judge as to whether or
not you want to keep it.

07-06-1992
----------
There are 2 entries for BOBS.DIS; one is
the BOBS.DIS when his board was a TRITEL
and the other is the newest representing
his board as a PCBoard BBS.
07-28-1992
----------
There are now 3 entries for BOBS.DIS.
The latest is for the change
reflecting the use of SCAN93 as his
virus checking program.
09-16-1992
----------
There are 23 new BBS ads in this months
update. BOBS.DIS has the distinction of
6 different ads with the same name. What a
guy! I've been informed that the BBS ad file
called AMIGASUK.EXE contains a trojan and when
run to completion, wipes out your FAT. I'm
not going to run it to find out, but be
advised in case you happen to encounter it.
11-23-1992
----------
There are 41 new entries in this months
update. BOBS.DIS has 7 entries now, but I've been
informed by Bob that he has ceased including these
ads in his files. Several of the BBS ads now
have duplicate entries, each with a different CRC
value. These guys must be running out of new
names to use! :)
11-28-1992
----------
Only 3 new ads in this release. There are now 2
formats of the file ads files. CRC.ADS is for use
with ZIPLAB and ZDCS-BBA.NDX is for use with ZDCS.
02-06-93
--------
There are about 35 new ads in this update. I'm still
including the 2 file formats for use with ZIPLAB and
ZDCS.
The beta ZIPLAB 2.0 (ZL2B0331.ZIP) now directly interfaces
with ZDCS Version 2.01. Jeff Morley appears to have nailed
down the problem of speed that he was having with ZIPLAB when
it was checking for ads. I'm currently using both of these
programs and they fly. I strongly reccomend using and
registering both of them.
Some of the add file names contain characters that cause
the new version of PKZIP to hang. I was informed of this
this by a local Sysop who was watching as I uploaded a file
loaded with ads. These 2 ads in particular caused PKZIP to
wait for an acknowledgement before proceeding:
136DBBA4,--%AVS
F82B4F2B,-README.INF
I have not included them in the CRC.ADS file because of this.
