VirusZ  is  still  the  classic antivirus software for Amiga computers, even
though development was down for over 2 years.  Now I'm trying to finally add
the missing features step by step (see history below).

This archive no longer contains any of the required libraries, so please get
them from Aminet (locations are mentioned in the header of this textfile).

To  ensure  that you have downloaded an original version of VirusZ and not a
fake, you can use my PGP key (attached to the VirusZ.doc file) together with
the  signatures  included  in  the  archive  for verification.  You can also
download a 100% safe copy of my PGP key from the following homepages:

Virus Help Team Denmark homepage:   www.vht-dk.dk
Dirk Stöcker's homepage:            www.dstoecker.de

Additionally,  you should compare the file size of your VirusZ copy with the
one  displayed  in the programs 'About' information.  They MUST match if you
didn't have crunched VirusZ yourself.

For comments or bug reports or if you have found some new virus, contact the

 0.98  Changes/Additions since 0.97:
	- Fixed bug in vector check kickmem brain that caused all patches to
	  be recognized as 'AmigaOS ROM Update'. Sorry for that!
	- Designed a new display format for the vector check. This one looks
	  better and is more informative than the old one.
	- Added brain for kicktags to the vector check. This one currently
	  only recognizes 'AmigaOS ROM Update' and 'ramdrive.device'.
	- Added the 'Snapshot' function to the vector check (as I promised).
	  Now you can snapshot every unknown patch that causes alerts on
	  your Amiga and send me the results. This makes it possible for me
	  to even add patches that I cannot install on my computer.
	  Read the manual for detailed information!
	- Added recognition for ppc.library v46.37 to the vector check.
	  Thanks to Jean-Michel Chapron for the handmade snapshots.
	- Added disassembler mode to Memory Monitor. This should help
	  experienced users/programmers to analyse unknown vector patches.
