!!! NOTICE PKZIP TROJAN VERSION !!!
It has come to PKWARE's attention that a trojan version of PKZIP is
being distributed under the name PKZ300B.ZIP or PKZ300B.EXE. This
version is not an offical version and will attempt to destroy your HD.
Delete it immediately if you have downloaded this version. If you have
any further questions about this trojan version, contact PKWARE at:
