Macro.Excel.Emperor.a

Description Macro.Excel.Emperor.a

This virus infects Excel sheets. It contains one macro (module) with the name "Emperor[number]" that contains five functions:
Auto_Open, keyplus, check_file, write_virus, run_virus
Upon opening (closing), the infected Excel file executes the Auto_Open (Auto_Close) virus function. This function summons the check_file (CheckFile) function that sets a four-digit password to the virus sheet. The virus then makes visible all hidden windows, looks for the "Emperor" module in all Workbooks and infects uninfected ones. While infecting, the virus copies its macro with the name "Emperor[number of infection]". The virus then closes all windows that were opened during infection.
The virus deletes the menus: Worksheet View - Toolbars, Format - Sheets, Tools - Scenario; Module - Edit/Delete, Tools/Menu Editor, Tools/Protection.
On the 1st and 15th of any month, depending on the random system counter, the virus displays the MessageBox:
The First Emperor Ver 1.00 [02/29/1997]
[the rest of the text is in unknown coding]
