Name : AMIGA FANATIC Aliases : No Aliases Type/Size : Boot/1024 Clones : No Clones Symptoms : No Symptoms Discovered : 17-07-94 Way to infect: Boot infection Rating : Dangerous Kickstarts : 1.2/1.3/2.0 | 3.0 = ??? Damage : Overwrites boot. Removal : Install boot. Comments : If you are booting with an AMIGA-FANATIC virus infected disk the virus copies itself to the $7F300 chip-mem address. Then the virus changes the CoolCapture-Vector to stay resident. During the next reset it patches the DoIO()- Vector to infect (only!) the disk you are booting with. Depending of infections the virus destorys the rootblock of the DD-disk. If you have such a destoryed disk try Disksalv 2 to recover some files. (Good luck!) If you are booting with a SCA, DASA or ByteBandit infected disk the AMIGA-FANATIC virus will clear this this bootblock. In the end of the virus you can read: "AMIGA FANATIC V1.1 20/05/88" NO Textoutput !! BY THE WAY: If you pressing the Joystickbutton during a reset the ^^^^^^^^^^ AMIGA FANATIC virus will deinstall itself by clearing the CoolCapture-Vector and showing some colors. A.D 04-94
