Sorry to tell you guys, but Sophos reported today a Simple Text copy on one of my volumes was infected.
No damage should be done to your emulated Macs if you happened to download a file of mine recently.

Still it would be good to get rid of the little bugger. Disinfectant or Norton Anti Virus should handle that.

Re: nVIR A reloaded
Always run Disinfectant Init, and for added security, GateKeeper Init. This'll keep you safe from viruses (but won't do much for word macro viruses and non-viral malware; you need Norton for that, or scanning with an external scanner such as Sophos or Intego).

I'd say that 75% of the old Macintosh files floating around places like Macintosh Garden are infected with nVir.
