This  library  contains  all the virus recognition and removal code that was
formerly included in VirusZ.  This step has been taken for one major reason:
VirusZ can be updated fast without releasing the whole package every week by
simply releasing a new library version.

In  the  future,  I  may release the full documentation (autodocs, includes,
etc.),  but  I'm  still  not sure about that.  Although the library has been
protected  against  unauthorized  modifications  quite  well, it's still too
dangerous  for me to tell everyone in the world how it works.  There are far
too  many  idiots  around  who  have too much spare time and too destructive
ideas.

So  simply  install the library in this archive to your LIBS:  drawer to get
100% protection against the latest viruses.

For bug reports, ideas etc. you can reach me at the following addresses:
