    Menems Revenge Virus 1+2:
    -------------------------

    Typ 1:
    -Linkvirus
    -an infected file becomes 3076 bytes longer
    -two hunks will be added
     $3e9 hunk ($2b6)
     $3ea hunk ($23)

    Typ 2:
    -Linkvirus
    -an infected file becomes 3124 bytes longer
    -two hunks will be added
     $3e9 hunk ($2c2)
     $3ea hunk ($23)

     Only some  bytes were  changed  from the first version to the
     next version.  The first  version appeared (I think) 1992 and
     the new version appeared 1994.

     The virus contains a checkroutine for files, which are longer
     than 60000 bytes.  LoadSeg will  be patched.  No resetvectors
     will  be  touched. A  new  process with  the name of a normal
     BLANK will be started.

     On some  testconfigurations the  files could not be repaired,
     because they contained pure garbage. Sorry.

     Sometimes a DisplayAlert routine shows you a text saying:
     Argentinia still lives...
     This text is crypted in the file with a asr command.  No real
     destruction routine (except for the linking itself) was found
     in the virus.
