Unfortunately, John McAfee (who distributes scanres and many other
anti-viral programs) seems to have troubles with version numbers.
Once a program of his has reached about the fourth public release,
you can be certain that somewhere amongst the archive name, program
name, program ID string, and documentation there is bound to be a
conflict.  The ID strings for scanvirus and the documentation have
been "out of whack" for quite a while.  I can assure you that what
I sent to SIMTEL20 is exactly the same as John posted on his BBS.
(But it's good that you're on your toes!)
