Leonardo |
This is a simple, encrypted, parasitic COM infector. The virus avoids infecting the program ND.COM. Perhaps it is only a little error in the code and that the name should have been DN.COM (Dos Navigator – analogy of NC). The virus occasionally presents itself by displaying the following text:
This is Leonardo - another virus Ninja Turtle Press any key....
And in the virus body is also a reminder on the origin:
Origin :Slovakia (not Hungaria or Austria)
In addition the virus searches for and deletes files ANTI-VIR.DAT, FINGERP.VVF, FILES.VVL, CHKLIST.MS and all files with the extension CRC. By doing so it tries to deal with the integrity check.
