Hi, has anybody noticed that the ZDnet-article that newsforge quotes was first published in 1997? <quote> A Year Ago: McAfee finds Linux virus 09:57 Tuesday 10th February 1998 This story was first published February 10, 1997 </quote> ...and that nothing containing "Bliss" is even mentioned in McAfee's Virus libraries?
