Synonyms: Companion Virus
|
|
|
|
Date of Origin: April, 1990.
|
|
|
|
Place of Origin: The Netherlands?
|
|
|
|
Host Machine: PC compatibles.
|
|
|
|
Host Files: non-resident. Infects COM and EXE files.
|
|
|
|
OnScreen Symptoms: See messages below. Also a melody is played.
|
|
|
|
Increase in Size of Infected Files: 8,064 bytes.
|
|
|
|
Nature of Damage: none.
|
|
|
|
Detected by: on-screen message.
|
|
|
|
Removed by: delete COM files created by the virus. They will bear the
|
|
date and time of infection.
|
|
|
|
This virus does not infect files, but rather creates a 8,064 byte COM
|
|
file of the same name as an existing EXE file. When a user enters the
|
|
first name of the EXE file, the COM file runs, a melody is played, and
|
|
the COM file displays the message: "Your computer is infected with...
|
|
(heart character) Aids Virus II. - Signed WOP & PGT of DutchCrack - ".
|
|
The COM file then "spawns" the EXE file's process -- permits the normal,
|
|
uninfected EXE to run, after which control is returned to the COM file.
|
|
At this time, the melody is played again, and the message displayed is
|
|
"Getting used to me? Next time, use a condom..."
|
|
|
|
The virus is significant in that it "infects" a file without touching
|
|
it at all, and thus escapes detection by CRC examination programs.
