Hi All. 27-03-1995
There has just been released a archive called 'CED4.LHA', and there are a
dectructiv program in the archive:
CED4 174500 bytes (Unpacked)
The FILE_ID.DIZ looks like this:
CYGNUS EDITOR V4.0 (MAIN)
The "Sucker" started in the S: directory replacing the data's in EVERY
file with the text 'CIRCLE OF POWER 1995:', so the startup-sequence and
rest of the files in the S: dir was totally destroyed. This goes for all
files in your 'DEVS:' directory to.
The CED4 looks a lot like the fake 'NComm 3.2' and 'LHA30.LHA' it does the
same things to your HD and disk's.
Please take care, there is a lot of fake programs around, that does this
thing. Checke everything before you start it.
The archive is now on it's way to every wellknown anti-virus programer.
Removal: Kickstart 1.2 & 1.3 : VT-Schutz v3.17
Kickstart all others: VirusZ III, and also Xvs.library must be installed
Thanx to Kim B., for sending the 'thing' to us....
Best Regards.....
