Damage:
The file names loadwb, makedir and setpatch are characters
added (see above). After the next reset can therefore no
longer process the startup sequence become. Changes in the
files were NOT determined provides. With a bit of luck, VT
will also recognize these files.
Caution: There could be errors, though programmers work
with these names AND spaces. After the rename, a window
appears with the text "wHY dID yoU rUN mE?.... etc..
If you close the window, a reset is carried out triggered.
So the part MUST attract attention. Change the three file
name back with SID or another DirUtil.
VT only offers delete f or the UNLZX because the unlzx
Function is NOT fulfilled
Removal: Kickstart 1.2 & 1.3 : VT-Schutz v3.17
Kickstart all others: VirusZ III, and also Xvs.library must be installed
