Aminet: Flash-Update for PPC-Cards a Fake
The flush-update of PPC-cards (flashupdates.lha, size 940kbyte) which
was uploaded on April 17th, 2001 is a fake which was not written by Ralph
'Laire' Schmidt being the author of PPC-software as he confirmed.
Ralf: "No..i haven't uploaded it. I notified the aminet admins to remove it."
Matthias Scheler, who is the co-admin of the Aminet, confirmed to amiga-news.de
that the supposed ppc-update has been removed.
Each user who downloaded and installed the flash update is advised to remove it
and to control the integrity of the software by using a current anti-virus-software
because it is possible that it is a virus or a Trojan.
Ralph Schmidt furthermore confirmed that he would never upload PPC-updates to the Aminet.
The only sources for his Flash-Updates are:
