- I recently FTPed the TENNIS.ZIP that people were talking so well about.
- I got it from the site that the original message found it(?i forget
- where that was). Well, anyway, I unziped the tennis.zip file, and that
- gave me a bunch of files including another tennis.zip and a pkunzip.exe.
- On Norton Antivirus, it flags the pkunzip.exe as having an unknown possible
- virus.... The new tennis.zip unzips ok with my pkunzip, and those files
- show no viruses with Nortons. Has anyone else come accross this...is this
- a corrupt copy of this demo....or did they just put in the corrupt pkunzip
- by accident. In any case, I dont want to try this demo until I am sure
- it is ok.
