- Comments : The Mutilator Virus only works on a few systems.
- As you can see above the virus needs Kickstart 1.3
- and a special (FAST)Ram called `Ranger Ram`.
- People who are booting with an infected disk and
- who can`t afford the above mentioned conditions will
- see a GURU ! But if you have such a Ram + Kickstart
- the virus will do the following:
-
- 1) The virus copies itself at $7FAD0 and changes the
- coolcapture-vector to stay resident.
-
- After the next reset the virus patches the DoIO() &
- the Supervisor()-Vector.
-
- The DoIO()-Patch is used to infect other disks.
- Every time when the Supervisor()-Vector is used by
- the system, the virus increases a value by 1. If
- this value reaches 224 (and an other 160) the virus
- executes an GFX-Routine with an endless-loop. But
- this routine has an programming-error (Color-Initial
- Routine is the last S..t!), so you will get an black
- screen.
-
- After 3 infects the virus gives out an alert:
-
- "THIS IS THE NEW MUTILATOR VIRUS !"
- "BY MAX OF STARLIGHT!"
-
- This text is crypted, you CAN'T read it in the BB.
-
- There is another crypted text in the BB which says
- after decryption:
-
- "Thanx to The Executors for Spreading this GREAT code ! done: -1992-"
-
- NOTE FROM ALEX: Sorry Max, I must laugh now. This piece of shit is
- just lame coded. (You`re very likely a Lamer, too.)
