Description Death.1001
Death is a not dangerous non-memory resident encrypted parasitic virus. It searches for .COM files (by using the mask "*.COM") and writes itself to the end of these files. On the 10th generation it types the message "Bad command or file name" and leaves in memory a memory resident program which hooks onto INT 09h (keyboard). When the Alt-Ctrl-Del keys are pressed in combination it types the following message and hangs the computer:
