I'm still puzzled at the huge # of DOS malwares used in the subect
test. And where, **Chas, did you see that 474,759 figure of malwares
tested?

One thing I thought was interesting in the PDF file is the plot
showing the exponential increase in malwares being detected. I thought
that is the case but I've never seen data supporting my supposition.
But something is fishy there. The plot shows the total # of malwares
being detect now at about 200,000 ... but that's about the same as
the # of DOS malwares _alone_ in the subject test. Doesn't make any
sense :(
