     Comments     : AGAIN..... one  of these boring boot block viruses. If
                    you  are  booting  with  an  infected  disk  the virus
                    copies  itself  to $7EC00 and patches the CoolCapture-
                    Vector to stay resident in memory.


                    After  the  next  reset  the  virus patches the DoIO()
                    vector  to  infect  other  disk.  And  only if you are
                    booting  with  them.  Every  15.th infection the virus
                    gives out this GFX-Message:


                    "VIRUS v1   wir sind wieder daahaaa..."


                    By  my  opinion  this  virus is  very LAME coded. Very
                    likely  a  dude  who had got the SCA-ASMSOURCE. Please
                    take a shower instead of doing such shit.
