|
||
|
||
Synonyms: Stoned-B.
|
||
|
||
Host Machine: PC compatibles.
|
||
|
||
Host Files: Remains resident. Infects boot sector of floppy disk and
|
||
partition table of hard disk.
|
||
|
||
OnScreen Symptoms: The screen will sometimes display "Your PC is now
|
||
stoned!"
|
||
|
||
Increase in Size of Infected Files: n/a.
|
||
|
||
Nature of Damage: Affects system run-time operation. Corrupts or
|
||
overwrites boot sector. Directly or indirectly corrupts file linkage.
|
||
|
||
Detected by: Scanv56+, CleanUp, F-Prot, IBM Scan, Pro-Scan.
|
||
|
||
Removed by: CleanUp, MDisk, F-Prot.
|
||
|
||
Derived from: New Zealand.
|
||
|
||
Scan Code: You can search at offset 043H for B8 01 02 0E 07 BB 00 02 33
|
||
C9.
|
||
|
||
This is a variation of New Zealand. Much of the code has been
|
||
reorganized. The only significant change in function, however, is that
|
||
the original boot sector is stored at track zero, head zero, sector seven
|
||
on a hard disk. The second string ("Legalise Marijuana!") is not
|
||
transferred when infecting a hard disk. The virus occupies space in the
|
||
hard disk's partition table.
|
||
|
||
The hard disk is infected as soon as an infected floppy is booted. No
|
||
intentional damage is done by New Zealand-B, except systems with RLL
|
||
controllers will frequently hang.
|
||
|
||
Removal instructions are the same as for the original New Zealand
|
||
virus for diskettes. However, an infected hard disk must be disinfected
|
||
by using MDisk with the /P parameter, with CleanUp, or NDD, because the
|
||
partition table has been infected.
