VirusHelp Denmark: New Informationen on New Trojan
I have received some new info about the new trojan that was found
on the 27'th of December. It is spread in an archive with the name
"dcs-4k.lha". But the demo group have nothing to do with this new
trojan. We have also been told that it is a guy from England and
that he also made the "dkg-blum.lha" trojan, his name and address is
known to Virus Help Denmmark. Thanks to Mikko for the new info.
Here once more the full information on the new archive (we had posted
these on 12/27/2000 already):
Today we received a new 'lame' trojan. This trojan will delete your
"sys:" if you run the program. At this time non of the anti-virus
programs can detect this trojan, but in the next update they will
be known.
The cure right now (If you have lost your SYS: to bad......), then
you will have to try and get the files back with eg. DiskSalv,
AB-Tools or VT-Schutz.
Here is some info about the infected archive:
Virus Type.... : Trojan
Trojan name....: 4KIntro.exe
Trojan size....: 4096 bytes (packed with StoneCracker 4.04)
: 6072 bytes (un-packed)
Archive name.. : dcs-4k.lha
Archive size.. : ? (Not known yet)
This archive has been send to all the antivirus programers.....
Thanx to Ryben Kozlak for the info and sending the archive to us..

Visitor #2,000,000 on amiga-news.de
Last night, the 2,000,000th visitor came to our website. Joe has sent us a
screenshot of the 'event'. A proud number for 27 months. This
turns out about 74,074 visitors per month, with rising tendency.
Currently, between 6,000 and 8,000 readers visit us per day!
This is the opportunity to thank you for this great acceptance. We are
very happy, especially about the fact that more and more programmers,
developers, and readers take the chance to enter news in our
Amiga News Forum (ANF) themselves.
As you certainly know, we are a team of Amiga users
who invest a large amount of their spare time in this project. That's exactly
why we are happy about your feedback and of course most of all about every support, as without all your
help, amiga-news.de wouldn't have emerged to what it is today: one of the best news services
for the Amiga :).

Picasso96 Driver for Mediator
Sufficient demand for Picasso96 drivers for Mediator provided, that is about 300 registered
users (specify Mediator for purpose when registering), in case of need we will purchase
a complete developer- and test-system with our own funds, and then create own drivers
for diverse PCI graphics boards. This drivers will then be of quality known form
us.
But Elbox mentioned to us that they already would have shipped two systems to Germany for other
driver development (CGX). Well, it would be in our terms to provide us one of these. To charge
UPS with delivery cannot cost the world.....
Another problem would be accessing the API of the Mediator system's pci.library. Elbox provides
this only for NDA, though they don't feel themselves to be bound to such concinnities, see their
unauthorized Voodoo3-P96 driver...
If they would refuse us to access this, of course this would raise a certain problem which could
lead to slightly delays.
Supplement 12-29-2000:
Tobias Abt via eMail:
Afterwards we got the information that this developer system provided to the CGX team was
distributed by Vesalia, but financed by Elbox.

FBlit v3.73xms
It was published a new test version of FBlit v3.73xms on 22nd of December 2000. FBlit patches some
OS functions normally using the blitter, such that these can use the
CPU and don't have to operate inside chip-mem.
The patched functions are also faster and non-interleaved data will suffer less from
colour flickering .
Additionally non-displayalbe bitmaps can be put
in fastram for named tasks. The new version contains various minor changes to v3.69b.

VMC-ISDN 2.99B100 Christmas update released
Attention! This is a commercial update. All features are available without
a VMC-ISDN-license but the connection time is limited.
We will make a special offer to the owners of the original ISDN-Blaster-Z2.
The following changes were made:
Speed-up of the interrupt-system witch made the whole thing a lot more stable.
Problems with FUSION were removed and things like vlink.device are no longer necessary.
At the moment we are working on the next generation of VMC-ISDN. We will
build in some interesting features like message transport over the D-channel and much more.
There are some screenshots of the new X-Phone version available at our VMC-ISDN product page.

Extract from History of AmigAIM since Public Release...
History of AmigAIM since Public Release...
AmigAIM 0.9405 Beta (25 Dec 2000)
- Added "Temporary" class of Buddy. If a message is received from someone not
already on Buddy list, they are added to temporary status. If not moved from
Temporary status to main list, Buddy is not saved when program is exited.
- Colors for different types of messages in Message list added. (Incoming,
Outgoing, Auto-Outgoing, Auto-Incoming, and System)
- Prefs have capability of default color on Left or Right, or use of special
colour on Left and Right for each Message.
- Activity window now has the capability of having prefs set colors for display
of status changes (Online,Offline and Away)
- Single Window mode appears to work better now, as I have the window closed,
changed than reopened after a change in prefs.
- Issuing an ARexx command of QUIT FORCE now causes the client to close under
most conditions without putting up any requesters (Even if prefs, etc haven't
been saved)
- Documentation in form of AmigaGuide document and MUIA_HelpNodes finally
added to program, including documentation of part of ARexx interface.
- Modified text input history system, now keeps history of last entry while cycling
up/down through history. (Modification or reuse of old history entry will
replace last entry)

XMas Edition of FormAldiHyd V1.2
today is XMas eve and therefore the day of presents. So quickly grab the
new version 1.2 of FormAldiHyd from my homepage.
Changes:
- V1.2 (24-Dec-00): (28860/13144 Bytes)
- Released to my homepage and AmiNet.
- Fixed the bugs with relative mouse movement (Cinema4D) and FlipX and/or
FlipY enabled (thanks to Roger Petry for giving me the hint).
- Reduced lower LMB Threshold limit from 13% to 1% on users request.
- Added a second usable area slider for mouse only, so you can change
between mouse and stylus on the fly and have a suitable acceleration
for the mouse movements.
- Range for the tablet was 1 pixel off set (minor flaw).
- Iconify on startup did not work as stated in the manual (lazy me never
tried it, sorry), so I added an option to iconify in the prefs.
- Changed the GUI layout a little bit.
- Added a FAQ to the guide.
- Painted a nice MWB icon for FormAldiHyd. Does anyone want to design a
NewIcon or GlowIcon?
- Added a niffy logo to FormAldiHyd (sorry :) ).
- Formalin now parses the ToolTypes and therefore can be started from
Workbench without problems now.
Just a few minutes ago, Gerhard Müller sent an email to me, telling me that
he has managed to get the Tablet working in conjunction with his MFCIII.
Moreover, he has supplied me a patch that is included in this mail (thank
you so much, Gerhard!). All users with MFCIII should try out this patch and
see if it's any good and solves the problem.
So this will be the last update for this millennium. Enjoy your xmas
holidays and happy new year! See you in 2001 :) And let's see who will notice
a slight change in my geek code in a few days :-D

The Secret of Mount Monkey - a Canceled Devotee-Adventure
Sebastian Beloch wrote:
This project was started in 1998, but was canceled in the meantime. This demo version includes
complete intro and parts of the first level (not playable). THE SECRET OF MOUT MONKEY is an
adventure game in style of the old classic adventures by Lucas-Arts (e.g. Monkey Island, Indiana Jones,
Day of the Tentacle, ....). The game combines the characters of these games building a new adventure game.
Guybrush Threepwood's daughter accepts the bid of Simon The Sorcerer to save the world, and has to
supply several ingredients for his magic potion. She travels to foreign islands (MONKEY ISLAND), visits
the Maniac Manison (DAY OF THE TENTACLE), stumbles into the comic strip worlds of Sam & Max as well as
Leisure Suit Larry...
The demo in graphics strongly abutes to the old adventure games and is a must for all those who loves adventures.
The demo and screenshots are to find at the project section
"Software-Projekte"
on http://www.sebel-interactive.de/.

Christmas Greetings and News from ANNEX
ANNEX wish all of you merry Christmas and a happy new year.
Contrary to some rumours the group would have parted I would like to tell, that we are
still there. We are well and waiting for strating shot for us to come back with new songs, a
new performance and hopefully a great come-back of the Amiga next year.
Publishing a track on the new OS 3.9 hopefully was a clear sign that we are NOT to leaving behind
the Amiga, but rather we are waiting for the things to continue. OS 3.9 also was a noticeable sign
for a generative co-operation happened, at last.
I wish all Amiga users and most of all the programmers merry Christmas and a happy new year.
Thank you for everything.

Christmas Greetings and Gifts from Katodev
It is Christmas at KATODEV, too. Over the month users' wishes cumulated here. It is
hardly possible to fulfil all of those, but at least some hopefully interesting things
for you are to find on our table with gifts. But, details will not be released before
the days after Christmas; and now at last also a somehow newer webpage. Well, stop
working now, it's time to have a break....
Merry Christmas to all of you! Also greetings to China, where a third of the current
Kato team is located now. Joern Plewka, Thorsten Hansen.

Makers of Exodus Taken In by Swindler
Fun Time World wrote:
«The makers of the game "Exodus - Tha Last War" apparently were taken by a swindler.
Mariuz Samson (Exodus) voiced on this problem in an
article on the homepage of the
Polish magazine eXec. The person in question, whose name
wasn't mentioned, has also been responsible for the server problems due to which it partly was
very difficult to download the demo version from the page. Similar problems also happened with
e-mails which didn't always arrive. For the alleged hacker attack also the person in question
has been responsible. Unfortunately the swindler was also able to read the e-mails sent to the
group and possibly answered some of those.
If you happened to receive an e-mail with a reply-to address different from the following, so this one
might be sent by the person in question: samsonm@poczta.onet.pl,
darexodus@poczta.onet.pl, sland@skrzynka.getin.pl, and maybe also slandsales@go2.pl.
Now you can reach the group under the following e-mail address:
samson10@box43.pl.»

Individual Computers: ISDN Surfer Driver V1.938
At the download area from now on the new capi20.device, and the new isdnsurfer.device
are available for download. The only change: capi20.device does no longer claim to
be a demo version. This expiry of the software was meant to remind of updating.
Unfortunately the deadline for further development was set too short.
By this we want to wish all of our customers, suppliers and business friends a merry Christmas and
a happy new year.

iBrowse News
Middle of December on the support forum of iBrowse, which was hosted by
www.senduptheflares.com/
and now doesn't exist no more it was to read that Stefan Burstroem, author of iBrowse
has got a full time job, cause he wasn't able to exist from what he gains from iBrowse, any more.
Here the original message form the HiSoft forum:
«Unfortunately, after many, many years of hard work on iBrowse, Stefan
Burstroem (the author of iBrowse) has been forced to get a full-time job.
The revenues coming in from iBrowse sales simply are not enough to support
worldwide marketing plus a salary for the author.
Although Stefan remains committed to iBrowse and the Amiga, it is difficult
to see how he can take the product forward without help. And, even then, I
cannot see how enough revenue will come to pay the people involved.
Please let me know if any of you have any ideas how this problem can be
solved. David»
On the iBrowse product page at Hisoft (see title link) it is mentioned that
it is absolute necessary to have a look at the demo version of iBrowse before
registering, to be sure that the browser fulfils your needs. According to Hisoft
so much changes have happened to the internet, that Amiga browser cannot keep up,
any more.
Here the original text:
«The latest version of the Amiga's premier web browser.
Note that the Internet has moved on and the Amiga has not kept up, so some
modern websites are not accessible on the Amiga because they require software
that is not available for the Amiga. Therefore, before you purchase an
iBrowse 2 keyfile please ensure that you have downloaded the evaluation version
and satisfied yourself that iBrowse 2.2 is suitable for your requirements.»
Conclusion: At this time further development of iBrowse is not to expect. But at
eGroups still a discussion forum for iBrowse users is available:
http://www.egroups.com/group/ibrowselist.

Holiday Executive Update from Bill McEwen
December 23, 2000
Executive Update - Looking Back
Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year to one and all:
Wow, have we been a blessed company. On December 27, 1999 we executed
our agreement with Gateway, and January 3rd 2000 was our first day of
business.
In one year we have been able to release an upgrade to the AmigaOS
(3.9, with our partners Haage and Partner), we have announced and
released two versions of the SDK for the New AmigaDE (Digital
Environment), we have released the AmigaOne specification and
announced two partners in building these new machines, (bPlan, and
Eyetech).
Yes this has been an amazing year.
As we look back upon these last 12 months, there have been many
lessons learned, and it is with these new lessons that we will be
moving into 2001, with clear focus, and numerous new announcements and
deals. Yes, the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas will be great
fun for Amigans around the world, for it is here that the rest of the
world will begin to learn what you already know! :-)
At this time of remembrance and thanks, we are also reminded of our
friends that we have lost. Coz, Bob Cosby is very missed and we think
of him, and pray daily for his wife Marsha. It has been the most
sobering event for Amiga, and it helped us to remember that Family is
what makes Amiga great. We are looking to add many new members to the
Amiga family this year.
This year has been hard for us in other ways also: the stock market
has certainly hindered our ability to raise the capital we wanted to
accelerate our plans, and many of us have had to endure financial
hardships making the dream of Amiga a reality. The Amiga team is
together, and moving ahead quickly towards this new and exciting year.
I want to thank each and every one of you for your continued support
and for everyone hanging in there with us.
We are truly a blessed company.
I want to personally wish everyone a very Merry Christmas, and a very
Happy New Year.
God Bless,
><> Bill McEwen ><>
President CEO Amiga, Inc,
bill@amiga.com.
