- Comments : PUH! The BootX-Virus is a very complex one. I can`t
- say much about it. The only thing I can say is that
- the virus allocates 2048 byte CHIP-Memory and copies
- itself into that area. To stay resident the virus
- patches the KICK-Vectors. BUT now it comes, the virus
- doesn`t use the DoIO()-Vector or the BeginIO()-Vector
- to infect other disks. The fact is that I can`t tell
- you exactly how the virus infect other disks. The
- virus installs a new port and then opens the input-
- device.
- In the middle of the virus you can read:
-
-
- "BootX-Viruskiller by P.Stuer"
-
-
- This string is also the KickIdentifikation, this
- should confuse the users. If you`re inserting a
- write-protected disk a System-Request appeares
- telling you that the disk has a READ/WRITE Error.
- in the BootX-Virus there is a message in RAW-CODE:
-
- "SOFTWARE_PIRATES RUINED MY EXCELLENT"
- "PROFESSIONAL DTP_PROGRAM I REVENGE"
- "MYSELF ON THESE IDIOTS BY PROGRAMMING
- "VIRUSES THIS IS PERVERSE I BECAUSE I"
- "LIKE ASSHOLE_FUCKING I PROGRAM VIRUSES "
- "FOR MS_DOS TOO"
-
- NOTE: I`m sorry concerning the DTP-Programm BUT is this the
- right answer ???? FIRST try another way to revenge
- yourself. (Alex)
