Looks to me like somebody's trying to land a job writing X-Files scripts. - "Mulder, are you saying that virus was ... polymorphic? And that's what wiped out the system?" - "We both know a virus like that can take a system down for weeks. Now I'm just worried about what it'll do next." - "I didn't think anybody had actually made a successful polymorphic virus?" - "They haven't. Until now." ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ Mike McNally -- Egregiously Pointy -- Tivoli Systems, "IBM" -- Austin mailto:m5@tivoli.com mailto:m101@io.com http://www.io.com/~m101 ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
