I am using McAfee Virus Scan for Windows NT, Version 3.0.3 with virus file
3.0.3204 (3/27/99).
This is the latest virus file for the series 3 McAfee. It is reporting the
NETBUSPRO.DR virus
on full.exe and user.exe. The McAfee site does not contain documentation on the
NETBUSPRO
virus itself, but does list what appears to be a related NETBUS virus.
According to the site, this
virus is similar to the old "Back Orifice" virus in that it causes a program to
be run in background
which allows a user to remotely log onto your machine if they have the proper
virus signon.

Yup, known conflict between that and the particular version of
InstallSheild we use. Upgrading either resolves the conflict.
