Description

Technical Details

This is an encrypted macro virus. It contains two original macros, but
while infecting global macros area the AutoOpen macro is copied to four
macros:



Documents    NORMAL.DOT

FilePrint -> FilePrint

autoOpen  -> autoOpen

ToolsMacro

FileTemplates

ToolsCustomize

The virus infects the documents on all calls that are listed above (opening
or printing a file, entering menus File/Templates, Tools/Macro,
Tools/Customize) and copies itself to global macros on opening an infected
document.

The virus drops the SK2.BMP file that contains an image of a death’s head.

On the 31th of any month the virus modifies the profile section [Desktop] (the WIN.INI
file):



[Desktop]

Wallpaper=SK2.BMP

TileWallPaper=1

SK2=

and increases SK2 value on each infection. It also creates the
C:WINDOWSREGSK2.REG and writes the text to there:



REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USERControl PanelDesktop]

“TileWallpaper”=”1”

“Wallpaper”=”C:\WINDOWS\SK2.BMP”

The virus then appends the following commands to the C:AUTOEXEC.BAT file :



@echo off

c:

cd c:windows

copy /y SK2.BMP c:windowssk2.bmp >nul

regedit regsk2.reg >nul

On the same date (31th) the virus, depending on the system time, displays the
dialog:



[!!!PIRATE VIRUS!!!]– Active!

The [PIRATE VIRUS] has pillaged your computer!
