; AntiVirus by HEIKO RATH
-=>A very short hack to check and reset the 3 ResetPointers
(Cold-, Cool- and WarmCapture)
Once upon a time I was sitting in front of my Amiga and inserted a new
Public Domain Disk when suddenly a message in a red box apeared. The
message was like this:
Something wonderful has happened. Your Amiga is alive !!!
A and even better ... Some of your Disks are infected by
a VIRUS !!! Another masterpiece of the Mega Mighty SCA !!
At first I was shocked, but then I started to defeat the Virus from my
Bootblocks. It is a rather harmless thing, the only damage it is able
to do is to destroy/alter your bootblocks. But it is possible that another
Virus might not be as harmless as the SCA-Virus. So I wrote a little toy to
prevent my machine from being hurt by a resetresident Virus. The only
thing it does is to check, report and reset your Resetpointers 'cause
I think this is the usual way a Virus does it's dirty work. For the best
results possible I use it in my startup-sequence & Shellstartup-sequence.
This little program only works in the CLI environment. If all 3 vectors
point to $00000000 then everything is OK (at least these are the default
values). To force AntiVirus to clear the pointers enter "AntiVirus c".
I used Asm68k and Blink6.7 to assemble and link it.
