Subject: "NEW" Amiga virus has arrived in Europe
Posted: 29 Feb 88 10:53:00 GMT
Organization:
Warning!!!!!!!!! A new Amiga virus has been detected warning!!!!!
The Virus is located on the bootblock (blocks 0&1) and will
result (sometimes) in your screen going blank and your computer
frozen up. It is NOT detected by SCA virus killing programs NOR
by Vcheck1.2. The ONLY program capable of detection is Vcheck1.9.
It will report a non-standard bootblock. the message on
block 0 is : > Virus by Byte Bandit in 9.87. Number of copies
and on block 1 : trackdisk.device.dos.library
the rest is gibberish
Install will kill the virus, that also copies itself to datadisks
Good luck!
