To infect other disks the virus uses the DoIO()-Vector from the exec.library. Additionally the virus patches the Vec5-Vector => $94(A6). This Patch sets always the CoolCapture + DoIO to the virus value. The whole virus is crypted depending of $DFF006. After 3 infections the virus installs a new patch in the ZERO-PAGE ($68). This patch does the following: 1) Tests if you are pressing of a special key. 2) If you are pressing this special key 10 times the virus causes a reset.
