Virus (DOS): Maximum.1198 @Tom.K

Uploaded February 2016 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago

Looks for COM files, infects them (as far it seems, infects only in current directory). Payload launches randomly, depends on running different programs, won't launch payload if user is executing same program over and over.

Payload displays following message and asks user for input:
"Radio MAXIMUM virus ver.1.0 beta (c) 1995 D&M Software.
So... tell me, what is the frequency of Radio MAXIMUM?"

If you enter 103.7, it will allow you to continue whatever work you have done with message:
"Right!
Radio MAXIMUM - BEST Radio..."
Otherwise, it will display error message and reboot:
"Error!
Now restarting..."

$Trojan Horse (Windows): Gutted Very simple, restarts and seems to drop Boot.exe but it fails. You may notice some static sounds. My bad as Ive configured CPU usage at 70% maximum. It wont happen again. Note: Ive managed to get high-speed connection now. Believe me, its EXTREME (at least for me).
