Description Mity.1982
It is not a dangerous memory resident multipartite virus. When an infected file is executed, the virus writes its code to the last sectors of C: drive and modifies the disk partition table in such way, that active boot sector address points to the virus code (see "Starship" virus). The virus then returns to the host program.
While booting from infected disk the virus hooks INT 13h, waits for DOS loading process, hooks INT 21h and then infects COM and EXE files that are executed. The virus writes itself to the beginning of COM file and to the middle of EXE files.
Depending on its counters the virus displays the text:
XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXX XXX XXX
XXXXXX XXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXX XXXXX XXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXXX
XXXX XXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXX
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXX
