                  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.
