The xvs.library contains all the virus recognition and removal code that was
formerly included in VirusZ.  This step has been taken for one major reason:
VirusZ,  Virus_Checker,  Virus_Executor and all the other antivirus software
can be updated quickly without releasing the whole packages every time a new
virus appears.

So simply install the xvs.library from this archive to your LIBS:  drawer to
get 100% protection against the latest viruses.

To be able to check if the library in this archive really came straight from
one  of  the  authors, you can use the public key with the .sig files in the
archive.  If you are not sure or do not trust the included key, then you can
always  request  the  original  straight from one of us (by email) or get it
from the VHT-Denmark homepage.

Currently  we are developing xvs.library together, so for bug reports, other
comments,  new  ideas  etc.   it's enough if you choose one of the following

   xvs.library 33.38 (size: 59.040 bytes)
	- Just had to fix two problems with the security code:
	  a. Timing has been improved to avoid interference with some music
	     software. Thanks to Paracels/PCB for the report and testing.
	  b. Expunge of library caused access to deallocated memory in some
	     rare cases. Thanks to Mikolaj Calusinski for the report and
	     the excessive beta-testing ;)
	- Fixed (hopefully all) MuGuardianAngel hits in the SurveyMemory()
	  routine. If anyone detects some more, please send me the logs.
	  Thanks to Thomas Richter for his suggestions about mmu.library,
	  but I finally found an other solution. And thanks to Sensei for
	  reporting all his hits.
	- Improved speed of SurveyMemory() drastically by skipping similar
	  recognition routines in just one step if their common requirements
	  are not available.
