F-Secure Virus Descriptions : Nutcracker





NAME:Nutcracker
TYPE:Resident MBR EXE-files
ORIGIN:Russia

This is a large family of related viruses. Most of these viruses are very complex multipartite polymorphic viruses.

Do notice that some NT machines connected to Novell network also have a service called "Nutcracker" running. This is perfectly normal and has nothing to do with this virus.
