Comments : The BLACK KNIGHT virus is a very simple boot-virus.
When you are starting it, it copies itself always to
the same memory address ($7F300).
After copying the virus changes the CoolCapture-Vector
to stay resident in memory. Then the virus patches the
DoIO()-Vector to infect other disks.
There is a crypted message in the bootblock which says
decrypted:
BLACK KNIGHT (12/11/91)
