- Howdy:
-
- Here is a little program that might just save your disk some day!
- NOX was written by me to help with testing the programs that were
- uploaded to my BBS.. One of them had teeth! And got around what
- WPHD was doing to stop write and format calls..
-
- NOX will trap writes and formats using ANY of the present set of
- system calls that do those things. Not just INT13 and INT21, but
- also INT26. It gets hard to be a virus without that one.
-
- NOX has been tested against 115 of the nastiest viruses around!!
- And NONE of them were able to get through what NOX does to keep
- them out.
-
- To use NOX, just place him someplace on your EXEC path and type:
- NOX.. The program will identify itself, and then proceed to stop
- you or any virus or trojan from writing to anything on any part
- of your disks! In other words, DO NOT run NOX before you start a
- session with WORD or LOTUS!!! You will not be able to save any
- data at all! Once NOX is active in memory, most types of writes
- to any disk will produce errors that range from 'Write Protect'
- to 'General Failure' - Be not alarmed! You are SAFE! Also, any
- program that tries an absolute write using INT26 will turn on a
- drive light.. But NO data will be written at all! Try it out!
-
- NOX is 'FingerWare!' If you see someone who looks smug and nasty
- (like he just finished writing a virus) Give him the finger for
- me! Also, if you find this program helpful and easy to use, send
- me a dollar if you like. I will gladly continue with NOX if I do
- get any interest, and have some new features in mind. Like being
- able to remove him from memory without having to reboot! -OOPS!
- forgot to mention that! I have a few mods to this in mind, and I
- will happily continue with this if there is any interest.
-
- Also, using this software is to agree that there is no liability
- of any kind for anything that happens as a result of your doing
- so. If you run this program from a shell in your program, and it
- prevents you from saving data until you reboot. You were warned!
-
- -Enjoy!
