WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
There is a file being circulated on BBS's called PKZ120.ZIP or
|
|
PKZ120.EXE or similar, and that claims to be version 1.20 of
|
|
PKZIP but in fact is a hacked version of PKZIP 1.10.
|
|
|
|
As of the date of this writing, the latest version of PKZIP is
|
|
version 1.10. Furthermore, due to this intentional act of
|
|
vandalism, PKWARE will not release any versions of PKZIP in the
|
|
future with the version 1.20.
|
|
|
|
If you see the files PKZ120.ZIP or PKZ120.EXE on any BBS or
|
|
on-line system, please ask the SysOp of that system to remove
|
|
the files IMMEDIATELY, and please contact PKWARE to report
|
|
where the files were seen.

|
|
PKWARE is offering a reward of lifetime free upgrades for PKZIP
|
|
to anyone who can provide information leading to the
|
|
identification and prosecution of the person or persons
|
|
responsible for creating this bogus version 1.20 of the
|
|
software. They have only served to confuse and hurt the user
|
|
community, and the perpetrators of this crime are at minimum in

|
violation of Federal Copyright Law.
