Name : Eleni 3 Aliases : No Aliases Type/Size : Boot/1024 Clones : No Clones Symptoms : No Symptoms Discovered : 23-04-94 Way to infect: Boot Infection Rating : Dangerous Kickstarts : 2.X/3.X Damage : Damages LoadFiles Removal : Install Boot Comments : If you`re starting the Eleni 3 virus it allocates 20000 byte Chip-memory as long as there isn`t any Chip memory anymore. The the virus copies itself into the last available chip-area. Then the virus patches the DoIO()-Vector to infect other disks. If you`re now inserting a disk the virus checks if the disk is already infected by loading the bootblock at address $70000. If the disk is already infected the virus subs 1 from a special address, which is on some AMIGAS the Clock-Address (A2000, I think). But all this will be done if there was a bootblock READ-Access. If a WRITE-Access is requested, the virus patches the LoadSeg()-Vector from the "dos.library". This LoadSeg-patch will do the following: If a file will be loaded the virus checks for the Clock Address. If this address reached the value 1 the virus insert a new name for LoadSeg, "ELENI!". In the CLI you will get this error: `Unknown command: "ELENI!"` If the Clock-Address reached 0 the virus loads the actual file into address $70000 und some bytes in this file will be changed. You will see a GURU. NOTE from Alex: All in all the virus is very LAME-Coded. Please guys! Don`t pollute our beloved AMIGA with such shit! A.D 11-94
