Comments : It claims to be a registrator for the cracked version of
AmiExpress 3.9. I have heard that AmiExpress 3.9 does not
need a keyfile.So what`s this ?
Oh,a new little very LAME destroyerprogramm for the /X-system.
It destroys following files:
bbs:user.data
bbs:user.key
bbs:utils/express
Info : The document for this virus looks like this:
"Note:
This Stuff is quite easy to install...
extract all stuff to ram: and copy the dir contents into your own..
first run AeRegist.exe after that run convertdb to convert the old
ami-express conf.db into the V3.9 conf.db
(this will clean up the msg base also)
Thx for your attention, have fun !!"
