- The Plague is a non-resident, overwriting virus that is a
- direct spin off of PCMII's Leprosy-B virus. Leprosy-B was released
- sometime in the August of '90 to the general public. However,
- Mc Affee had gotten his hands on a copy of the Leprosy-B virus
- sometime in August or September and had, in the next version
- of SCAN, added the code to scan for Leprosy-B, making it
- virtually useless for destructive purposes.
-
- I picked up a copy of Leprosy-B a couple weeks ago while on some
- pirate board in the Seattle, Washington region, recalled reading
- about it in Mc Affee's VIRLIST.TXT, and decided to rewrite the virus
- and make it immune to Mc Affee's vaccine programs.

-
- The Plague is different from Leprosy-B in that:
-
- -- It is 10% smaller than Leprosy-B, enabling it to infect
- other files in a shorter period of time.
-
- -- It will encode itself (Using PCMII's Cybernetic Mutation
- Technology.) 90% of the time now, instead of the 25%
- in Leprosy-B.
-
- -- Its code is optimized, making it a bit more efficient.
-
- -- Upon complete infection of the disk medium, The Plague will
- completely overwrite the first few sectors of the default
- drive, completely destroying the data on it.
-
- -- And Mc. Affee's SCAN program (up to version 71b) caannot not
- detect The Plague.
-
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-
- Later versions of The Plague will be changed and will steer away
- from the Leprosy program structure, implement a new, more complex
- encoding algorithm, and the ability to avoid infecting programs such
- as Mc Affee's SCAN.
