- I have not any evidence to that effect, nor have I so far seen any
- such a posting in comp.compression which would unambiguously support
- your report, and would warrant the drastic action you suggest. I
- will nevertheless be careful and post your concerns to
- comp.compression. I will also be pleased to forward a copy of this
- report to PKWARE, McAfee, and my fellow MsDos FTP site moderators so
- that they can check the authenticity of what I have at Garbo. Below
- are multiple PC and Unix checksums for identification.
-
- While very much thanking you for your coming forward, Mark, and much
- appreciateng that, you'll have to understand that I have to have
- much more solid proof before I take any definite action.
-
- All the best, Timo
