Webroot Antivirus: The best protection against viruses, spyware data theft and hackers.

Description: Details
February12.1167

It is a possibly dangerous (see below) memory resident parasitic virus. While installing memory resident it traces INT 13h, 21h, then patches DOS kernel to hook INT 21h. The virus then writes itself to the end of COM and EXE files that are executed. On February 12th the virus disables keyboard and accurately reads all hard drive sectors. It seems that this is a debug version of the virus, and the "final release" will have WriteDisk calls instead of ReadDisk.
