; THE ICELANDIC "DISK-CRUNCHING" VIRUS
;
; Another possible name for this virus might be "One-in-ten", since
; it tries to infect every tenth program run. The Icelandic name for
; this virus ("Diskaetuvirus") translates to "Disk-eating virus"
;
; It was first located at one site in mid-June '89. It has since then
; been found at a few other places, but is quite rare yet. So far it
; does not seem to have spread to any other country.
;
; Disassembly done in June/July '89.
;
; The author of this program is unknown, but it appears to be of
; Icelandic origin.
;
; All comments in this file were added by Fridrik Skulason,
; University of Iceland/Computing Services.

;
; To anyone who obtains this file - please be careful with it, I
; would not like to see this virus be distributed too much. The code
; is very clear, and the virus is quite well written. It would be VERY
; easy to modify it to do something really harmful.
;
; A short description of the virus:
;
; It only infects .EXE files. Infected files grow by 656 to 671
; bytes, and the length of the infected file MOD 16 will always be 0.
; The virus attaches itself to the end of the programs it infects.
;
; When an infected file is run, the virus copies itself to top of
; free memory, and modifies the memory blocks, in order to hide from
; memory mapping programs. Some programs may overwrite this area,
; causing the computer to crash.
;
; The virus does nothing if some other program has hooked INT 13
; before it is run. This is probably done to avoid detection by
; protection programs, but it also means that many ordinary
; programs like SideKick and disk cache software will disable it.
; Even the PRINT command will disable the virus. This reduces the
; spread of the virus, but also greatly reduces the possibility that
; the virus will be detected.
;
; The virus will hook INT 21H and when function 4B (EXEC) is called
; it sometimes will infect the program being run. It will check every
; tenth program that is run for infection, and if it is not already
; infected, it will be.
;
; The virus will remove the Read-Only attribute before trying to
; infect programs.
;
; Infected files can be easily recognized, since they always end in
; 4418,5F19.
;
; To check for system infection, a byte at 0:37F is used - if it
; contains FF the virus is installed in memory.
;
; This virus is slightly harmful, but does no serious damage.
; On floppy-only, or machines with 10Mbyte hard disks it will do
; no damage at all, but on machines with larger hard disks it will
; select one unused entry in the FAT table, and mark it as bad, when it
; infects a file. Since the virus only modifies the first copy of the
; FAT, a quick fix is simply to copy the second table over the first.
; This is the only "mistake" I have found in this virus. It appears
; to be very well written - What a shame the programmer did not use
; his abilities for something more constructive.
;
; This file was created in the following way: I wrote a small program,
; that did nothing but write "Hello world!" and ran it several times,
; until it became infected. I then diassembled the program, changed
; it into an .ASM file, and worked on it until this file, when
; assembled, produced the same file as the original infected one.
;
; (Or almost the same - the checksum in the header is different).

; The virus is basically divided in three parts.
;
; 1. The main program - run when an infected program is run.
; It will check if the system is already infected, and if not
; it will install the virus.
;
; 2. The new INT 21 handler. It will look for EXEC calls, and
; (sometimes) infect the program being run.
;
; 3. The damage routine. It will select one unused cluster and mark it
; as bad.
