FYI Technetter's:
CIAC issued an update (4-17) on the AOL4FREE virus warning at
http://ciac.llnl.gov/ciac/bulletins/h-47a.shtm.
Briefly, here is what they have to say:
April 17, 1997 23:00 GMT
PROBLEM: A Trojan Horse program called AOL4FREE.COM that deletes
all
files on a hard drive is circulating the Internet.
PLATFORM: DOS/Windows-based PCs
DAMAGE: When the AOL4FREE.COM program is executed, all files and
directories on the users C: drive are deleted.
SOLUTION: DO NOT execute this program. If the program starts
executing,
quickly pressing Ctrl-C will save some of your files.
VULNERABILITY Users who download the trojaned AOL4FREE.COM program and
ASSESSMENT: executes it will destroy all the files and directories on
their
DOS C: drive.
CIAC has obtained a Trojaned copy of AOL4FREE.COM that destroys hard
drives.
NOTE: This is different from the AOL4FREE Virus Warning hoax message.
