Synonyms: 3880 virus
|
|
|
|
Date of Origin: March, 1990.
|
|
|
|
Place of Origin: Milan, Italy.
|
|
|
|
Host Machine: PC compatibles.
|
|
|
|
Host Files: EXE files. Non-resident.
|
|
|
|
Increase in Size of Infected Files: 3,880 bytes
|
|
|
|
Detected by: Scan v.60+.
|
|
|
|
Removed by: Scan/D, or delete whatever is infected.
|
|
|
|
Recognition of this virus is straightforward. EXE files will grow in
|
|
length by 3,880 bytes, and a file named ?OMMAND.COM (where ? is a non-
|
|
printing character) will be found on the disk. This file contains the
|
|
virus, and is used as a source of the code during infection.
|
|
|
|
Itavir won't activate until it has been in the system for 24 hours or
|
|
more. Upon activation, it corrupts the boot sector, so that the system
|
|
will not boot after power down. A message (in Italian) is displayed, and
|
|
ASCII codes 0-255 are sent to all ports. Some monitors will flicker or
|
|
(if VGA) will hiss when this occurs.
