Crazyboot is a typical boot sector virus which corrupts diskettes
due to bugs in the code.
It is only able to infect a hard disk when you try to boot the machine
from an infected diskette. At this time Crazyboot infects the Master Boot
Record, and after that it will go resident to high DOS memory during
every boot-up from the hard disk.
Once Crazyboot gets resident to memory, it will infect practicly all
non-writeprotected diskettes used in the machine. It is also a stealth
virus - if you try to examine an infected boot record, it will show you
the original clean one instead.
Every now and then it will display the following text:
Don't PLAY with the PC !
Otherwise you will get in 'DEEP,DEEP' trouble !...
Crazy Boot Ver. 1.0
Crazyboot does not keep the partition info in it's correct place
in the MBR of the hard drive. Due this, do not try to disinfect
this virus with the FDISK /MBR command. F-Secure anti-virus
products disinfect this virus from F-PROT version 2.22 upwards.
