; Virus in Assembly Language
; --------------------------
;Most viruses out there have been written in assembly because assembly has the
;unique ability to bypass operating system security.
;Here is an example of a virus written under MS-DOS 2.1 and can obviously be
;compiled in the later versions. The article contains remarks so as to further
;explain the parts. Programmers may wish to delete those segments if desired.
;**************************************************
; Program Virus
; Version 1.1
; Writter : R. Burger
; Created 1986
; This is a demonstration program for computer
; viruses. It has the ability to replace itself.
; and thereby modify other programs. Enjoy.
