> Sicilian Mob Ia :

 Created by: Rock Steady
 Released  : September 1991


 Introduction:

    It's here `Sicilian Mob Ia' Virus. And UNDETECTABLE as of Sept & Oct 1991.
 This Virus was a development from the Vienna Virus. Though it's VERY
 different. This one had to be changed a HOLE lot to make it Undetectable
 from McAfee & Ass (Scan 7.2V80). And I made this one a Signature Virus.
 Passing the word that [NuKE] rules...


 Description:

    Well this virus infects only *.COM and the COMMAND.COM. One thing about the
 infection method is that there is a random generator in the virus and 6 out of
 7 times it will infect a *.COM and 1 out of 7 times it will do a warm re-boot
 (no memory count). And when it Infects a file it will NOT change the date and
 dime of the file! This virus is also able to infect READ ONLY files. It will
 change the file to Read/Write and infect it, and then turn it back to READ
 ONLY. The only sign of infection is that the infected files grow by 1024
 bytes. This virus is not RAM-resident, and when first run it will try to
 infect more than one *.COM file. It goes to the current directory searching
 for *.COM and then uses the PATH to get more *.COM files. If there is no PATH
 the virus will go to the ROOT directory and search for sub-directories. And
 once in a PATH it checks for sub-directories to infect even more *.COM. And
 after January 1st 1992 it will display a message that is HARD-CODED in the
 virus! The message will be displayed every time an infected program is run!
 And still continue to infect *.COM after Jan 1st 1992, but you'll see the
 message being displayed every time!
