PC Viruses in the Wild - December 1, 1993
============================================================================
This is a cooperative listing of viruses reported as being in the wild
by 14 virus information professionals. The basis for these reports are
virus incidents where a sample was received, and positively identified
by the participant. Rumors and unverified reports have been excluded.
The list should not be considered a list of "currently common" viruses
however. No provision is made for currency or commonness. Therefore it
should be viewed only as a report of viruses verified as in-the-wild.
============================================================================
This list adds information provided from EliaShim and Virus Bulletin.
A companion list includes frequency information from some participants.
============================================================================
The section below gives the names of participants, along with their
organization, antivirus product (if any), and geographic location.
