Sarcoma.1328
Description Sarcoma.1328
It is a harmless memory resident parasitic virus. It hooks INT 21h and writes itself to the end of COM and EXE files that are executed or closed. While installing memory resident the virus also infects the C:COMMAND.COM file. The virus then opens the C:CONFIG.SYS file, looks for "SHELL-" command in there and infects corresponding file, if it exists.
The virus does not manifest itself in any way. It contains the text string:
'COMPUSARCOMA' virus by M.S.S.
