-
- I know of one Scream virus - or "Screaming Fist" as it is also called.
- There are at least five variants of it, 692, 696, 711 and 838 bytes
- long (and one with a variable length). I have not yet written a
- disinfector for the 838 byte variant, but I can handle the others.
-
- As for the effects of the virus, I am not sure - I have only analysed
- them minimally.
