- HappyNewY.96 Inst. Installer
Type B
Known file names:
- stoer4.exe Length: 57644 bytes
- mfs format length: 16448 bytes
VT2.79 should find the HappyNewYear in memory, at
Filetest but do NOT report. That could be that
missing installer file. Thank you
From VT2.80, type B should also be found in the filetest.
Note 05/16/96:
A file has appeared.
Name: stoer4.exe Length: 57644 bytes
This file was created using the 4EB9 method. In this
File is found with the VT-BlockKetteTest an HNY96. To the
the virus section CANNOT find the corresponding place in the file
HAVE linked yourself. So someone helped.
From VT2.84 the part should also be recognized during the filetest.
VT only offers deletions.
Two lessons:
- 4EB9 files are FREQUENTLY harmless, BUT NOT ALWAYS.
- Try floppy or RAD security: also the
BlockITest and the BlockKetteTest with VT. Thank you
Note 96-10-05:
A file has appeared.
Name: mfs-format ??? Length: 16448 bytes
In this file an HNY96 in the
3.Hunk (!!!) found. At the appropriate place in the file
the virus part did NOT link itself. So someone has it
nachgeholfen.
From VT2.91 the part should also be recognized during the filetest.
