Ulog/Dlog V1.8/MsgTOP BBS Viruses:
PLEASE NOTICE THAT THE ULOG/DLOG Viruses have the same filelength
are many parts of the routines are equal. I am calling this viruses
"Devil" viruses because I have heard that this viruses were created
by/for a sysop in the south of Germany with this name.
Comment 08.04.1993.: I met a friend of him and he told me that more
than 60 files are infected with the BBS virus from the same author.
The last version,which I got, was release V11. Most files will be
recognized by VW as @{"$4eb9 files" link "4eb9" 0}.
Due to the fact that I met this person only one time, I could not
get any further information.
This viruses change the "user.data" File from the /X mailbox system
in the following way: The counter(value) for the account editing
and the SYSOP downloads will be reduced so that most users can play
with the system.
This viruses are only dangerous for sysops. They cannot destroy the
information on the disk.
The MsgTOP virus will be only recognized, if it is packed with the
Imploder(V1.x-V3.x).
Removal: Kickstart 1.2 & 1.3 : VT-Schutz v3.17
Kickstart all others: VirusZ III with Xvs.library installed
