NightKing.1568
It is a very dangerous memory resident parasitic virus. It hooks INT 21h and writes itself to the end of COM and EXE files (except AVG.EXE) that are executed or opened. While infecting a computer the virus stores the current time in the MBR of the hard drive, and one month after infecting the virus reads to the memory the FAT of the C: drive, then corrupts the FAT, displays the message:
+-----------------------------------------------+
¦ Hello dear friend, your computer is attacking ¦
¦ by NIGHT KING I. virus. If do you like your ¦
¦ data very much, don't reset your computer ¦
¦ before midnight ! ¦
+-----------------------------------------------+
then the virus waits till midnight and restores the corrupted data. If the computer is rebooted before midnight the FAT is lost. |
