    disappears with no lasting harm except to fruit industry.

AIRLINE Virus:  You're in Dallas, but your data is in Singapore.

AL GORE Virus:
    Confuses the computer into thinking the pcmcia port stands
    for "protecting, conserving, my conebearing ideal americans,"
    and it will only function if you push a living tree twig into
    it while hugging the trunk.  Do not do this though, or a stink
    will come out that will destoy the ozone leaving only your
    hardware functioning.  No living Sysop will survive but the trees.

AMY FISHER Virus:
    It tries to destroy but only damages your monitor.
    Then it prints a message of its life story.

ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER Virus:
    The so-called terminator virus will come and go, leaving the
    message that "it will be back."   Only defense against this
    virus is through it's female adapter, but then you run the
    risk of getting the dreaded Kennedy Viruses.

AT&T Virus:
    Every three minutes it tells you what great service you are 
    getting.

BILL CLINTON Virus:
   This virus mutates from region to region; we're not exactly
   sure what it does.  Appears to mate with other viruses at random.
   It does much flip-flopping and accomplishes absolutely nothing.

   (Mutation #1):
   Makes your system do the opposite of what it prompts.  Can only
   be removed when you hold it under white-water.  Tries to remove
   itself by turning your printer into a shredder.  If it prompts
   you for the Clinton-defense-virus, DON'T BELIEVE IT.

   (Mutation #2):
   It starts by boldly stating, "No new Files for the Middle Class!"
   on the screen.  Then it proceeds to fill up all the free space
   on your hard drive with new files, then blames it on the
   Quayle or Bush Virus.

BORIS YELTSIN Virus:
    It reformats your drive and alters your PC's basic operating
    principles every ten minutes, making it completely inoperative.
    Meanwhile, an on screen message begs you to be patient and wait
    90 days for results.

BOSNIA-HERTZEGOVINA Virus:
    Under the influence of this Eastern European virus, your PC's
    components continuously break down into tiny, squabbling factions.

CONGRESSIONAL Virus: Overdraws your disk space.

    (Mutation #1):
    The computer locks up, screen splits erratically with a message
    appearing on each half blaming the other side for the problem.
    In the past, the section with control made the loudest beeping.

    (Mutation #2):
    Runs every program on the hard drive simultaneously, but doesn't
    allow the user to accomplish anything.

CONSTITUTIONALIST Virus:
    This virus acts up during computer war games.  It blinks your
    monitor before attacks---once if by LAN, twice if by C:>.

DAN QUAYLE Virus:
    Forces your computer to play PGA TOUR from 10am to 4pm, six
    days a week.  Plus messes up your editor, making it add e's
    to the end of vegetable words.

    Tags an E on the end of every word in your text files ending in 
    o.

    (Mutation #2):

    It eats the heart out of your PC with some fava beans and a
    nice Chianti.

ELVIS Virus:
    Your computer gets fat, slow, and lazy and then self destructs,
    only to resurface at shopping malls and service stations all
    across rural America.

E.T. Virus:
    Locks up your modem by phoning home, when not talking to
    Jimmy Carter about the space ship cover up.

FEDERAL BUREAUCRAT Virus:
    Scrambles your sectors into thousands of little units, each doing
    next to nothing, but all of which claim to be the most important
    part of your computer, and cost more than an optical disk.

FREUDIAN Virus:
    Your computer becomes obsessed with marrying its own motherboard.

GALLUP Virus:
    Sixty percent of the PCs infected will lose 38 percent of their
    data 14 percent of the time (plus or minus a 3.5 percent margin
    of error).

GENNIFER FLOWERS Virus:
    This virus no longer exists per se, it was cloned off onto
    the Clinton virus.

GEORGE BUSH Virus:
    Doesn't do anything, but you can't get rid of it until November.

    (Mutation #1):
    Starts by boldly declaring "Read my Text... NO NEW FILES!"
    on screen, proceeds to fill up all the free space on your hard
    disk with new files, and blames it all on the Congress virus.

    (Mutation #2 - Japanese Version1):
    Eats some of your files, then immediately regurgitates some of
    them.

    a bill for $4,500.  The bill is $9,000 when overwritten with
    the assistance of the Congressional Virus.

    (Mutation #1):
    Self aborting virus that will scare the daylights out of you.
    It hides hoping the HILLARY VIRUS will not be detected, then
    resurfaces if the CONGRESSIONAL VIRUS is not dealt with
    immediately.  Virus analysts say the CONGRESSIONAL virus may
    mutate and self destruct, the conclusions are out.  One thing
    is clear.  It will not be as powerfully destructive.

HILLARY CLINTON Virus:
    Causes your printer to become a paper shredder, has no owners
    manual, and is unresponsive to the Sysop.  Attempts to connect
    to insider traders in cattle futures.  You MUST control, alt,
    delete before it does so.  You will go bankrupt without the
    improper but not-so-terminal connections.

    (Mutation #1):
    Writes a very imporant program without having taken any classes
    in Computer Science.  Strongly attempts to force you to use it.

    if you choose "Fail" or "Retry", and only allows the "Abort"
    message to be selected.

    (Mutation #1):
    Gives you the CONDOM Anti-Virus program, but intentionally hides
    from you that it has a 20 percent failure rate.

    (Mutation #2):
    After attempting to promote self-satisfaction, the Elders Virus
    is quickly removed by the Clinton Virus.

JURASSIC PARK Virus:  Makes V20 computers more advanced than a
    486 then duplicates the new computers.

    Keeps scrolling the lyrics to "The Song that Doesn't End"
    on the bottom line of your screen.

LAPD Virus:
    Claims it feels "threatened" by the other files on your PC and

    Overrides "detect and clean" virus removal programs, then
    continues misbehaving inspite of losing funds in all spreadsheets.

LORENA BOBBITT Virus:
    Very serious virus.  It cuts off your hard drive and leaves you
    with only a 3.5" floppy!   Especially dangerous for BBS SysOps -
    as it will cut off your most valued member while you sleep.

MARIO CUOMO Virus:
    Should it attack your system or should it leave your system
    alone?  This virus can't seem to decide what to do, but an
    on screen message says it withholds the right to destroy your
    files at a later date.

MARTHA STEWART Virus:
    It takes over your PC and oh so tastefully alters your
    color palettes to lovely muted pastels.

MEDIA Virus:
    Feigns a "just" interest in data processors for football users
    and famous prostitute users, but has already aborted and
    executed Pensacola user protester.  Fairness does not compute
    in data process selections.

    (Mutation #1):
    Messages on your screen refer to Republican victories as
    "a killing" and sends sympathy notes to Democrats on your
    printer.  When detected, it tells you it "just read it off
    your modem's wire service," though this message is deceitful.

THE MCI Virus:
    Every four minutes it autodials all your friends and relatives
    and pesters them to switch, giving them YOUR name, as reference.
    Every three minutes it reminds you that you're paying too much
    for the AT&T virus.

MICHAEL JACKSON Virus:
    Hard to identify because it is constantly altering its appearance.
    This virus won't harm your PC, but it will trash your car.

PAT BUCHANAN Virus: Shifts all output to the extreme right of 
    the screen.

PAULA JONES Virus:
    It doesn't exist.  There are too many witnesses for it to
    exist.  If it existed, there would be no witness, like in

    It warns you of impending hard disk attack---once if by LAN,

    Never calls itself a "virus," but instead refers to itself as
    an "electronic microorganism."

    Overwrites all files, in every State but remains personally
    opposed to it's own behavior.  Destroys all files from 1 day
    to 9 months even if the only reason is sector selection.
    It won't encourage you to consult your mother (board), and
    demands more and more funding.

THE RAMBO Virus:
    Protects your CPU, but attacks any systems it perceives as enemies.

    a counselor about possible alternatives.

RONALD REAGAN Virus:
    This virus creates serious problems in memory.

ROSS PEROT Virus:

    of running.  Then it scans the disk for competing operating
    systems, and if it finds any, shuts down immediately...

    (Mutation #1):
    Your PC is crippled by 500,000 incoming calls of support each day.

    (Mutation #2):
    Activates every component in your system, just before the
    whole thing quits.

    Your data won't appear unless you buy new cables, power supply,

    It makes your hard drive hard driven.

TWO LIVE CREW Virus:

    seek to unplug, it electronically files a class action suit.

U.N. Virus:
    Takes control of all of your computer's defensive and offensive
    programs, but is not answerable to any commands by the sysop,
    manufacturer, not even the Clinton virus.  Even though this virus

VAMPIRE Virus:
    Your PC can operate only at night, and its performance really sucks.

WACO Virus:
