Acad.vlx Virus Cleanup improved

Steve Johnson made a safer version of the AutoCAD virus protection that was posted in this Knowledge Base document: Acad.vlx Virus Cleanup.

The clean_virus_safe.lsp checks for existence of acad.vlx and logo.gif files, which are associated with virus AL/Logo-A, also known as ACAD/Unexplode, ACAD/Agent.A or ACM_UNEXPLODE.B. Written as a safer alternative to Autodesk’s code which deletes suspect files without prior warning. This code renames the files instead.
