A Little Viruses Collection
This is my little viruses collection. Be very carefull on what you do with
them, their use could be illegal. Some viruses can also be extremely
dangerous for your system.
They are well-known viruses and the name is the one reported by
Antiviral Tolkit Pro, a rather good antivirus program for Windows 9x or
DOS (shareware). You can find it at http://www.avp.ch.
In 2004 I definitively stopped using Windows, and thus AVP.
Now I run only Linux and I scan for viruses just to waste my
time and CPU clocks. I use the Clam AntiVirus (free software
with GPL license), so new viruses are named accordingly.
You can find this virus scanner at

Boot viruses
Boot viruses infect the boot sector of disks, so you can't carry them
attached to a file. The following are images of infected floppy disks, you
must restore them using rawrite under DOS or dd under Linux. Most viruses in
this category are rather old and can't live (infect and propagate) on modern
hardware because they relay on a particular disk size or operating system
(remember 5" 1/4, 360 kb floppies and MS-DOS 6.22?).
