  11. Today I downloaded a file from WUARCHIVE.WUSTL.EDU (one of the
  12. mirroring ftp sites). Filename is
  13. /mirrors/garbo.uwasa.fi/screen/grabsc11.zip When I tried to ran
  14. GRABSCRN.COM from this zip file, Norton Antivirus TSR reported that
  15. the file is infected with Wonder-2 virus.  F-PROT did not report a
  16. virus.  I sent mail to the person who maintains garbo.uwasa.fi and
  17. received an answer that he is out of town till July 27. This means,
  18. the file will not be tested/removed from garbo until then.  Has anyone
  19. downloaded this file before ?  What happened ?
