Subject: Virus Warning for o2cv06.zip

Anyone who downloaded o2cv06.zip from ftp.delorie.com should DELETE it
immediately, and any copy of cwsdpmi.exe that came with it.  For
safety, I recommend deleting ALL copies of cwsdpmi.exe on your system
and re-downloading the cwsdpmi zip from an official DJGPP ftp area.

The cwdpmi.exe in o2cv06.zip has a very nasty virus in it, and appears
to have been placed on purpose by someone pretending to be from the
Trax team (please don't send mail to Trax!).  The virus escapes most
virus scanners except very up-to-date ones.
