- felscher@maplog.informatik.uni-tuebingen.de reports a lingering
- Cascade/1701 infection. The description of the problem indicates that
- McAfee's VIRUSCAN software may have failed to disinfect files.
-
- I suggest you try Skulason's FPROT (from SIMTEL20 or images) which may
- give you a greater degree of assurance. It also examines some common
- compressed executables for viruses present before the compression
- (LZEXE, PKLITE, etc).
