- Comments : The TRIPLEX-Virus allocates 2048 bytes chipmem and
- copies itself into this area. To stay resident the
- virus changes the CoolCapture-Vector. After the next
- restet the virus patches the DoIO()-Vector, too.
- If you want to see the bootblock of an infected disk
- the virus always shows you a normal Kickstart 1.3 BB.
- This routine is also used in the LAMER-Viruses.
- In the end of the bootblock you can read:
-
- "This nice little virus was written in 1990 by"
- "Darth Vader of TRIPLEX!!"
