Southeastern Color Lithographers Inc of Athens, GA, lost some employees, a number of major accounts and almost went bankrupt in 1987 when its computer system went haywire. For months, employees were confronted with a constant barrage of troubles, such as files being erased, printers that operate without any reason and system crashes. The situation caused so much stress to employees that several quit. Southeastern also lost some customers, who were angry about production delays. At one important sales presentation, files were garbled and the report had numerous errors. Eventually, a programmer from Computer Connection, the store that sold the system to Southeastern, developed a program to catch the culprit. The program identified the saboteur as a newly-hired employee, who was eventually convicted for wrecking computer files.

DSC Communications Corp of Plano, TX admits that an error in one of its programs caused recent telephone system disruptions. DSC says that the difficulties have been traced to a software modification that was done in Apr 1991. The problems began on Jun 10, 1991, when there was trouble with Pacific Bell's services in Los Angeles. On Jun 26, Bell Atlantic Corp's Chesapeake & Potomac subsidiary experienced disruptions in Washington, Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia. John O'Rourke of Bell Communications Research Corp is leading an investigation into the matter. The possibility of sabotage, he says, is not ruled out.
