While I realize that the bliss virus looks more like a research project
than a malicious virus, the reality is that it is out there. Because
I was concerned that some programs on my linux systems might have become
infected, I wrote a tool to determine which programs, if any, had
been infected by the bliss virus. For those who lack have md5 checksums
of all their binaries, this is likely to be a useful tool. You can
