Snicker,
the 'pop cs' instruction was the one reason I managed to keep from
getting the Yale virus on my very first PC (HP Vectra CS). Yale went
around in a big way at college, in the PC labs. I couldn't manage to
get it, even when I conscientiously _tried_ to infect my PC.
I wonder if I still have a disassembly for that old virii around
somewhere.
