Macro.Access.Detox.a
This virus infects MS Access databases. While infecting, the virus replaces the Autoexec script in databases and copies an additional macro named TDU to the database . This macro contains four subroutines:
TheDetoxUnit
SetStartupProperties
ChangeProperty
Info
When an infected database is opened, the Autoexec macro is activated. In infected databases it immediately calls the virus function TheDetoxUnit that searches for all databases in the current directory and infects them. While searching the virus uses the "*.MDB" mask. Before infecting the virus disables the Tools/Options menu and changes several system parameters: disables viewing macros by using hot-keys and on error while executing macros, enables executing auto-scripts when Shift key is pressed (by default pressed Shift disables auto-scripts).
The Info subroutine contains nothing but comments:
