     Comments     : The Sachsen 1-Virus is a VERY harmless virus.
                    If you are booting with an infected disk, the
                    virus copies itself at address $78000. To infect
                    other disks the virus patches the CloseDevice()
                    vector (!! NEW !!). Decrypted you can read:

                                      "HI USER !!!"
                               "I CONTROL YOU SYSTEM !!!"
                                        "WHY???"
