It is; part of the core of VMS, but requires a licence to be used.e    G After installing the licence, you also need to check the SYSGEN SHADOW*uM parameters, notably enable SHADOWING (set to 2).

Yes, VMS machines which I receive email will get these viruses.  Yes, there can be so many that it   amounts to a denial of service."  @ Of course, VMS is not affected in the sense that a PC is, where G following the instructions in such a message can wreak havoc on the PC -) and aid in the distribution of the virus.1  D A new quality of viruses now exists: those which harvest legitimate F addresses from "address books" on PCs.  In the past, as long as one's H email address was not publicly visible (i.e. not in a newsgroup posting F or on the web), one didn't even get such messages.  Still, the "only" 4 problem with VMS is the amount of messages received.  G Presumably, virus-filtering is done with virus-filtering software.  Or vG is there now something part of TCPIP Services which does content-based r virus filtering?  E The misuse of their position as maintainer of the .COM and .NET root wH servers by Verisign is probably aiding the virus spread, since anti-spam- measures based on domain name no longer work.   F I suggest that everyone who is in a position to do so sue Verisign forF damages.  Keep in mind that their criminal misuse of their position isE legally a separate issue from civil cases demanding compensation (cf.sC O.J.
