    Other possible names: Game-Trojan
    
    Filelength: 003.DAT (new Startup-Sequence) 73 bytes
                002.DAT (SetKeyBoard) 1412 bytes
                001.DAT (assign) 3220 bytes

                Swifter 106496 (Imploder 4.0)
                        215448 (unpacked)

                (IFF picture in swifter is 215018 bytes long
                and NOT used)


    This is just another lame trojan  with no special stuff
    in it.  It will be tried to delete the startup-sequence
    and then  to  install a new one,  which should delete a
    lot of  files.  After the  mainfile was started,  a new
    Keymap will  be activated, c ontaining a lot of garbage
    and dangerous commands like a format command. The virus
    itself  is 430 bytes  long and  after  it  a normal IFF
    picture with a not youth free slogan can be found. This
    picture will be not accessed and was probably put there
    to increase the length of the file.

    The file  was uploaded  to a  swedish bbs by an unknown
    user and this user contacted the sysop and said that he
    is sorry, but he uploaded by accident a new trojan from
    him  to his box.  Make  your own point of view,  I am a
    little bit irritated.
