Details
Loz Family
These are dangerous memory resident encrypted parasitic viruses. Some of them use the polymorphic technology. They hook INT 21h and write themselves to the end of COM and EXE files that are accessed (the earlier versions infect COM files only). These viruses alter the first 4 bytes of COM files (JMP Loc_Virus, DB '+'). While creating a resident copy they decrease the value of system memory (the word at 0000:0413).
"Loz.1018,1023" viruses modify system information in boot sectors of floppies (set to zero the word corresponding to the number of disk drive heads). When the AIDSTEST.EXE (soviet antiviral program) is run the viruses display: "Welcom to demo version (C) Zherkov", (thereafter in Russian) "Lozinsky - STUPID, AIDSTEST-RUBBISH" (D.Lozinsky - author of a popular Russian anti-virus program). The "Loz.1018" virus deletes the AIDSTEST.EXE program. The "Loz.1882,1915" viruses delete the AIDSTEST.EXE file as it is run and display the following message (in Russian):

Loz.724
It is a dangerous memory resident parasitic virus. It hooks INT 21h and writes itself to the end of COM files (except COMMAND.COM) that are executed. The virus creates a counter in the MBR of the hard drive and increases it on installing into the system memory. On 100th installing the virus hooks INT 9, then it depending on pressed keys writes some data to a hard drive port. The virus contains the text string:
