- Virus Name : WEED v1.1
- PayLoad.....: Several. Ranges from files being corrupted (only to allow further
- infection) to fat erasure. Also randomly deletes track/sectors on
- occasion.
- Virus Target: *.exe and *.com files. Stealth infection routines. :)
- Virus Info..: WEED will disable vsafe/vscan if found in memory. WEED will
- also infect files after the host has finished running. Good
- example: pkzip and pkunzip.exe. Once pkunzip.exe is infected
- any files it makes for you *.com and *.exe will become weed
- carriers. That is, before you even have access to them.
- Virus Size..: Varies. Depends on the host size and what weed feels like doing.
- Encryption..: Oh yes, on host data... Encryption algorithm is much better
- then previous version
- Stealth.....: Some. Infected *.com and *.exe files will not notice any
- modification. Including f-prot :)

- scanning with flying colors.
