F-PROT will now scan .DO? (typically .DOC and .DOT) files by default.
This is done because of the Microsoft Word Macro-based viruses that
appeared recently. This behavior can be disabled with the /NODOC
command-line switch.
The instructions for uploading viruses to us have now been changed. A
different PGP key is now included with the package, so that instead of
the key belonging to Fridrik Skulason, the key that should be used belongs
to Frisk Software International. See NEW-VIR.DOC for up-to-date
information on how to send us virus samples.
The "E-mail update service" address has changed - see UPDATES.DOC.
Version 2.20 - the following false alarms were fixed:
DLL.COM : Possibly a variant of Australian_Parasite
LXDSPS.COM : Possibly a dropper program for a new variant of Stoned
PCUNPACK.EXE : MtE
WSASRV.EXE : MtE
Version 2.20 - new viruses:
The following 2 viruses are now identified, but can not be removed as
they overwrite or corrupt infected files. Some of them were detected by
earlier versions of F-PROT, but not identified accurately.
HLLO.7227
VCL.Windoze
The following 75 new viruses can now be removed. Many of them were

Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!
This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.
But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
