Welcome to The Viral Collector's Kit #1 by The Knights of Chaos
---------------------------------------------------------------
This collection was put together over the years by the members of The
Knights of Chaos and is now presented to you as a part of our Viral
Collector's Kit.
This kit was NOT intended to teach you assembly language and how to WRITE
viruses, but to provide some tools and viruses (for dissassembling) to those
with previous assembly language background. We have, however, included some
aids in which to experiment in viral writing, namely Nowhere Man's Virus
Construction Lab. We've also included Mad Maniacs's Mutation Engine and Dark
Slayer's Confusion Engine, OBJ tools needed in created polymorphic viruses.
We've also included the GenVirus Construction Lab, another Virus Construction
Lab which is unfortunately mostly in French. As a bonus, we've also included a
number of ASM files of viruses by Immortal Riot which was included in their
magazine, Immortal Riot #4. Some of the virus .ZIP files containing ASM, C,
and PAS files of their own. And finally we got tons of zines. 40Hex,
other Phalcon/Skism Virus text, NuKE InfoJournals, and Crypt Newsletter.
I hope you enjoy this first of many Viral Collector's Kits that we're putting
out. Have Fun
