I think it said "Don't Panic", though only if you had MacinTalk installed.
My Macs were heavily infested with nVir B, from when I bought my first Plus
in 1996 until earlier this year when I got an SE/30 with SAM on the hard
disk and cleaned out all my floppies. Nothing out of the ordinary ever
happened over those 4+ years...
