Subject: MerryXMas Hypercard Virus Vaccine
The enclosed self-extracting archive contains a Hypercard 2.1-based vaccine
for the MerryXMas Virus. The MerryXMas Virus is a Hypercard script-based
virus that spreads by attaching itself to the Home stack. Since it only
spreads through the use of Hypercard, there is absolutely no reason why
non-Hypercard users would need it. Hypercard 2.1 is required, and a color
monitor is optional. Written by Bill Swagerty (Bill_Swagerty@qm.claris.com)
of Claris Technical Support, in his spare time. Documentation is included.

Subject: "Merry Xmas" Killer
I have recently experienced one of the most annoying Macintosh para-
sites of all time -- the virus.
Although only a HyperCard virus, "Merry Christmas" is an annoying
little bugger to have, like any virus. Fortunately, I was able to spot it
before it infected anything really important.
I highly suggest that anyone with HyperCard download this file. It
will scan your stacks for Merry Christmas and permanently zap it. Although
small (less than 12K) it does its job very efficiently.
Have fun with HyperCard! *Stiles
