============================================================================ PC Viruses in the Wild - January 1, 1995 ============================================================================ This is a cooperative listing of viruses reported as being in the wild by many virus information professionals. The basis for the reports are virus incidents where a sample was received, and positively identified by the participant. Rumors and unverified reports have been excluded. The list should not be considered a list of "currently common" viruses however. No provision is made for commonness. A currency basis for the list has been set. Viruses not reported for over a year are removed. This data indicates only "which" viruses have been found in the wild. ============================================================================ The section below gives the names of participants, along with their organization, antivirus product (if any), and geographic location.
