software giant has been considering its plans for a Windows based system with Japaneese
and American game companies, writes the US news service

product by end of October.

All the Web - fastest search engine
With "All the Web", a super-fast search engine has gone online that really
shows results unbelievably quick. Take, for example, the keyword "Amiga":
In only 0.003 seconds, 256564 entries are found! That's close to magic for
me :-). Not so good, however, is the sorting of the found websites; e.g.
amiga.de was not listed among the first 100 entries... the super-fast locating
of sites is of little use if the most important sites are listed among
"others"...

IMP Project News
IMP news again: Now we 're cooperating with the AROS team to ensure IMP not becoming a
"LINUX Distribution with UAE" ,as some people said before, but a system with a real "AMIGA
Feeling".
More important is the open source thought behind the project. In the meantime we contacted
Fleecy Moss and the Phoenix Consortium. Whereas Fleecy supports our engagement, the answer
from the Phoenix Consortium is still overdue. We 're not against Phoenix and we 're happy
about every alternative to the "future plans" of Amiga that's capable of being spread.
So our LINUX choice as developing envoirement is not final in anyway, its just a base to
start the multi-platform developement.
More informations with the titlelink.

Tornado-News From The Mailinglist
Sample from a mail, written by Massimiliano Marras, Eyelight founder and sole owner:
Just to clarify: there are no plans to drop Amiga development. Tornado3D is an Amiga
product and will stay Amiga and Three-Oh will be released and I hope it will please (most)
everybody. And there will for sure a 4.0 version next year. Those are official statements.
Rest assured that present and future loyal T3D users will NOT be left out in the cold.

Viruschecker.brain Update Version 2.21
Download: vhtvb221.lha
A new trojan virus has been discovered, too. It has been removed from Aminet, but this might have been spread, so take care...
The trojan will after it has been executed, replace the
'c:loadwb' with a new 'loadwb' with the size of 84.772 bytes, and create a
file in your wbstartup drawer called "Workbench" (size 40.668 bytes, packed), and now the trojan is ready to 'play' with your Amiga. You can find this textstring in the file:
GuRuX mEdItAtIoNz: [JoShUa`S tRoJaN]`/AdDrEzZ: [yOuR ComPuTeR]
TaZk: [SyStEm KiLlEr]
MoRe iNfOrMaTiOn: censored
This trojan is made with AMOS, and it is a lame trojan.....
Here is some info about the archive:
Name : New msx-2 Turbo R emulator
Trojan name : Amos Joshua Trojan
Archive name : msxR.lha
Archive size : 124.196 bytes
Trojan name : msxR.exe
Trojan size : 128.800 bytes (144.320 bytes unpacked)
Short desc : New msx-2 Turbo R emulator for 030 040 060
This trojan has been sendt to all the antivirus programmers and they will
make recog. for this trojan in the next update.
Thanx to Heiner Schneegold, Jan Erik Olausen and Alex van Niel for the
fast test. And to Gringo, Urban for the first reports about this trojan. (ps)
