     Name         : Butonic 3.2

     Aliases      : No Aliases

     Original     : -

     Type         : File virus
     
     Size         : 2900 bytes

     Symptoms     : The VirusPrg does start and distorts the vectors,
                    but when the disk is changed, the GURU comes along.
                    
                    Since the root block cannot be found with $6,000 on
                    a hard disk, it shouldn't be multiplying at all. I
                    therefore suspect that another program is performing
                    the installation. The program name is NOT known.
