No CBM Immunity
 ( Viruses on the Loose ) 

Unfortunately,  our Commodore computers do not confer immunity. Read on. 

There has been much in the news lately about " viruses " which infiltrate
computer programs. In a nutshell,  they resurrect themselves and destroy data or wipe out programs. Yes,  these things do exist and are the product of sick people who seem to delight in the misery of others. 

While it seems most of these so - called viruses have been infecting IBM compatible programs,  we in the Commodore world of computing are evidently not immune ! 

Word has it that some of the viruses in circulation are : 

C64 / C - 128 Viruses - The Collector,  Super Cleaning,  The Last Cleaner,  Disk House - Wife,  Disk Janitor,  and Super Boot,  and anything that Blackened uploads. 

Amiga Viruses - Supergrapak. art,  Great Houdini. art,  and Disk Magic. art. 

There could be many more ! So beware when you download a file from a BBS,  or when borrowing a BBS download from a friend !
