COMMAND
Vellum 3D
SYSTEMS AFFECTED
MacOS
PROBLEM
CIAC has determined that the demo CD-ROM for the Vellum 3D version
3.0 application is infected with a strain of the MBDF A/B virus.
Vellum 3.0 is a high end CAD package for the Macintosh. The CD-ROM
containing the updated version and some demo versions is being
distributed at no charge by Ashlar Inc. Due to the fact this is a
free distribution, the infected CD-ROM may be widely distributed.
The cover of the CD-ROM contains the following text:
Vellum 3D
Version 3.0
for Windows 95 & NT and Power Macintosh
Ashlar
(c)1997 Ashlar Incorporated.
The infected file is: Vellum 3.0 CDROM:Vellum 3.0 Demo-Mac:Vellum
The modification date of the file is 6/17/97
SOLUTION
Users should not run the Macintosh demo version of Vellum. Other
versions of Vellum 3D on the disk, including those for Windows 95
and NT, and the Macintosh update version (not the demo version)
are not infected and can be safely used.
