F-PROT Gatekeeper - the first in the world The Global Virus Situation Tai-Pan.666 The "POX ON YOU" -Trojan Horse News in Short Form Strikes Again DE.EXE and Mange-Tout F-PROT- Support Informs: Common Questions and Answers Changes in F-PROT Professional version 2.17 F-PROT Gatekeeper - the first in the world
Today virus protection has become an important concern for companies and organizations, although the use of anti-virus programs in itself can only be considered a necessary evil. F-Secure Ltd. has made the F-PROT Professional anti- virus software as easy-to-use, user-friendly and automated as possible. Now F-Secure Ltd. has developed an even easier way to protect computers against viruses - a way that is the first of its kind in the world. F-PROT Gatekeeper is a Windows background protection program. It searches for viruses by using F-PROT's Secure Scan, which means that it is capable of detecting practically all known viruses - including the elusive polymorphic viruses, which are normally very difficult to detect. F-PROT Gatekeeper is part of the F-PROT for Windows package, and it can be installed to function either by itself or together with F-PROT for Windows. F-PROT Gatekeeper provides an excellent way to protect a company's Windows workstations, for it functions as long as Windows is running - and extends its protection also to DOS sessions which are run under Windows. In F-PROT Gatekeeper's development, we paid special attention to the needs of the companies whose workstations are connected to a network. F-PROT Gatekeeper communicates directly with the network administrator, reporting all the virus incidents detected in the network's workstations. F-PROT Gatekeeper is also easy to install and maintain centrally via the network. There are several installation options available to the network administrator. The program doesn't have to be installed separately to every workstation - it can be automatically installed to the network's workstations from the network server. The program's updates can likewise be distributed via the network in a similar manner. The new version needs only to be copied to the server, and the individual workstations will automatically fetch it from there. F-PROT Gatekeeper was publicly tested in Internet. The test was a success - over 1500 companies and private users downloaded the test version from our ftp server. The Global Virus Situation
Tai-Pan.666
During 1994, the Tai-Pan virus became rapidly very common. Since the end of the year, a new variant of this virus has also managed to spread widely. The size of the original Tai-Pan was 438 bytes; the new version is 666 bytes long, and it is therefore known as Tai-Pan.666. Tai-Pan.666 was first found in Belgium, in December 1994. The functioning of Tai-Pan is quite simple; it goes resident in the computer's memory and infects nearly all executed EXE files. The virus does not infect programs which are larger than 64 kilobytes. Infected files grow by 666 bytes. Tai-Pan does not actually try to do anything besides spreading itself, but it may occasionally crash the computer. Tai-Pan.666 contains the following text strings: DOOM2.EXE Illegal DOOM II signature Your version of DOOM2.EXE matches the illegal RAZOR release of DOOM2 Say bye-bye HD The programmer of DOOM II DEATH is in no way affiliated with ID software. ID software is in no way affiliated with DOOM II DEATH. Because of these texts, Tai-Pan.666 is also known as "DOOM II DEATH". Despite all the threats, Tai-Pan.666 does not contain destructive routines or single the DOOM game out for its attacks. Ironically, one avenue by which Tai-Pan.666 managed to spread was "DOOM II Mania #1", a CD-ROM disk featuring DOOM themes. The disk was published in the beginning of 1995 by Tech Express Software. The company has now drawn the disk from the market. F-PROT can detect and remove the Tai-Pan.666 virus. The "POX ON YOU" -Trojan Horse
During the last few months, many PC users have been confronted with a mystical "Pox on you" -message which appears on the computer's display when the machine is booted. When the matter was examined, the message was traced to an IDE driver file called CMD640X.SYS. The file comes with CMD PCI IDE drivers. The message is not caused by a virus, nor has the original program file been tampered in any way. Rather, it seems that the driver's programmer has added a Trojan Horse routine to CMD640X.SYS as a "joke". CMD640X.SYS activates randomly. It keeps printing the following message on the screen for a while, after which it crashes the computer. A poX oN yOu!! yoU wiLl bUrN iN tHe fiReS of HeLl!! A poX oN yOu!! yoU wiLl bUrN iN tHe fiReS of HeLl!! A poX oN yOu!! yoU wiLl bUrN iN tHe fiReS of HeLl!! The only way to eliminate this nuisance is to install a sanitized version of the CMD driver into the computer. News in Short
Form Strikes Again
Form, the most common virus in the world, is still going strong. The latest Form incident took place in Microsoft's developer meeting in London, during which a Form-infected diskette was distributed to 160 developers. Luckily, the infection was noticed in time to warn all the people involved. At the moment it is still a mystery how the Form diskettes managed to slip past all the usual virus checks. DE.EXE and Mange-Tout
In the last Update Bulletin, we mentioned that preformatted 3.5" HD diskettes which contain a file called DE.EXE, infected by the Mange-Tout.1099 virus, have been found in the circulation. After that, diskettes which contain the same DE.EXE - but without the infection - have also been found. F-PROT- Support Informs: Common Questions and Answers
If you have questions about information security or virus prevention, contact your local F-PROT distributor. You can also contact F-Secure directly in the number +358- 0-478 444. Written questions can be mailed to: F-Secure Ltd F-PROT Support Paivantaite 8 FIN-02210 ESPOO FINLAND Questions can also be sent by electronic mail to: Internet: f-prot@datafellows.fi; X.400: S=F-PROT, OU1=DF, O=elma, P=inet, A=mailnet C=fi. When I turned on my brand-new computer, the message "Chipaway virus enabled" flashed past during the boot-up. No viruses were found when I ran a virus check, however, and F-PROT's virus description database contains no mention of a virus called Chipaway. Chipaway is not a virus, but an anti-virus program. It is included in the BIOS of some newer computers. The program's start-up message is, undeniably, a little bit confusing. F-PROT detected the PMBS virus in my computer's memory. I cold-booted my computer from a clean diskette and ran a virus check. For some reason, F-PROT identified the virus it found as Stealth_Boot.C. Why did the viruse's name change all of a sudden? When F-PROT detects a virus in the computer's memory, it does not perform a precise identification. Therefore, the name given by the memory check may not match that reported by the program's full scan. VIRSTOP does not perform a precise identification, either; however, the new F-PROT Gatekeeper - the F-PROT Professional for Windows active protection, does. We use a Windows for Workgroups network, in which the network disks become visible to users only after Windows has been started. What is the easiest way to implement automatic updating of VIRSTOP or F-PROT Professional for Windows in this kind of an environment? Traditional, batch file -based methods for automatic updating function also in Windows for Workgroups networks. A more elegant solution, however, is to take advantage of our F-CMDW utility program. F-CMDW is a Windows program - with it, computers do not need to jump from Windows into a DOS session straight after logging in. F-CMDW functions also with Lan Manager's newer versions (in which users can log in from Windows). F-CMDW can be had for free from F-PROT Support. Changes in F-PROT Professional version 2.17
F-ARC, a New Utility Program
F-ARC.EXE is a new utility program for scanning packed files. F-ARC locates archive files, extracts their contents by using your own unpacking software, and employs F-PROT to scan them for viruses. F-ARC's syntax goes as follows: F-ARC [/ALL] [/LIST] <file|<drive>|<dir> ... The explanations for the command parameters are: /ALL Scan all files inside archives. /LIST List all archive files in the log file. <file> The archive file to be scanned. Only one file name can be specified if this parameter is used. <drive> The drive to be searched for archive files. It is possible to specify more than one drive. <dir> The directory to be searched for archive files. It is possible to specify more than one directory. Examples of F-ARC's use: F-ARC /all c: d: Scan all files in all archive files located in drives c: and d:. F-ARC c:\foo\bar.zip Scan for viruses inside the archive BAR.ZIP. F-ARC's settings are stored in the file F-ARC.INI. The various settings and their explanations are listed below: [F-ARC] ;The files header. scanner=c:\f-prot\f-prot.exe ;The location of F-PROT. append=0 ;Append to (1) or overwrite (0) the log file. memscan=1 ;Start by scanning memory with F-PROT: yes (1) ;or no (0). tmpdir=C:\F-TMP ;The temporary storage location for ;extracted files. [Packer1] ;Unpacking program number 1. packer=c:\bin\arj.exe ;The full pathname of the unpacking ;program. parms=x /y ;Parameters for the unpacking program. extension=.arj ;The file extension of archive files which ;can be extracted by using this program. In F-ARC.INI, it is possible to specify up to five (5) different extraction programs. The log file used by F-ARC is called F-ARC.LOG. Changes in F-PROT Professional for DOS
Major changes The names of several viruses have been changed, and new names have been assigned to viruses which previously had only temporary names (names which started with an underscore). Some of these changes are due to changes in classification, some were made in order to make the naming system more regular.A couple of these renamings deserve a separate mention. "Jerusalem.Vtech" viruses are now known as "Jerusalem.HK" viruses - these viruses having nothing whatsoever to do with Vtech computers. For the same reason, the Prodigy virus has been renamed Glupak, and Coke has been renamed Coker. Our definition for "invalid files" has been changed a bit. Previously, we used the same classification method as the DEBUG program - if DEBUG displayed "Error in EXE or HEX file" when attempting to load a file, F-PROT would give an "Invalid file" report of the same file. However, some of these "invalid" files will actually run, at least under some versions of DOS, and this is now taken into consideration. The following problems have been found and corrected: EXE files infected with the Astra.1010 virus were previously reported to have been infected by a "new or modified variant of Astra". Files infected by the Zero_Hunter.415 virus were not disinfected correctly. Some Leprosy.591- and Emmie.2620 -infected files were not identified correctly. Instead, they were reported as "New or modified variant of ...". Sometimes, when reporting "companion" viruses, F-PROT would incorrectly add a message like "truncated (5273 bytes missing)" to its report. The following false alarms have been fixed: If Heuristic Analysis was used, F-PROT gave false alarms of the files CDBENCH.EXE, DGKEY.COM and L2D.EXE. PS7_IDC.DLL was flagged as a possible variant of Aurea. Minor improvements and changes Testing has revealed a problem, involving random memory errors, on some machines. This problem is not detected by parity checking. The problem is generally caused either by too few wait states or a faulty cache memory. This problem has so far been found only on 486/66- and Pentium/90 machines.This problem may have unpredictable effects on various programs, including F-PROT. It may cause the message "checksum error in SIGN.DEF" to be displayed, or corrupt search strings randomly, thus causing false positives or false negatives. F-PROT will now attempt to recognize this situation, by checksumming the search strings before and after scanning. If the checksums are not identical, a warning message will be displayed. Changes in F-PROT for Windows
F-PROT Gatekeeper has been added to the Windows version. Communications manager initialization has been rewritten. This has the following consequences: If the communication directory is not valid, F-PROT for Windows will no longer automatically erase the communication directory entry. Instead, it will simply not use the network features. When the network path becomes valid again, the network features are re-enabled. F-PROT for Windows will allow communications directories to be established on Workgroup drives. F-PROT for Windows will not use the Seedword (Workgroup Name) in SEED.FP_ any more. The automatic search for communications directory has been removed. Administrator's menu items "Read User Reports" and "Read User Messages", as well as the "Read Bulletins" button, will be disabled when the network is unavailable. Other changes: F-PROT for Windows contained a bug which prevented task saving in the administration mode if users were not allowed to modify tasks. This has been fixed. Memory scan has been slightly changed (an additional selector limit check is performed). A check is performed when reports are read: F-PROT for Windows used to crash if the report file was corrupted in such a way that the number of reports was too big. Quick Scan has been removed; all tasks are now executed by using Secure Scan. The Quick Scan option has been removed from the "Task Settings" dialog. Note that SCAN_Q.DLL is still needed, for it is used for fetching virus names into old reports made with Quick Scan. FPWINSC.DLL is not used any more, however. The "All" and "New Only" buttons in the "Read Bulletins" dialog work properly now. Reports which had been read with the program's previous versions were not marked as "Read" in the "Read User Reports" dialog. This has been corrected. The Disinfect/Rename/Delete confirmation dialog will now stay on screen for 15 minutes before closing automatically, instead of the 20 seconds it was open before. The opening of the "Task Settings" dialog has been optimized. The dialog used to be especially slow to open in systems with many network drives; that was due to the fact that the volume labels of all drives were read separately every time the dialog was opened. Now, the volume labels are read only when the "Task Settings" dialog is opened for the first time; after that, the volume labels are stored in memory, from which they are retrieved the next time the dialog is opened. This behavior can be overridden by setting "nolabelcache" on the F-PROTW environment variable. The "Read User Messages" function has been vastly optimized: it is up to ten times faster than before. The "Read User Reports" function has been vastly optimized: it is up to ten times faster than before. The startup of F-PROT for Windows has been optimized: launch takes up less time now. Credits screen will be shown in the "About" dialog when F1 is pressed. CFG/INI read- and write operations have been rewritten. This should greatly benefit the OS/2 version. The new routines are now used in most cases for reading and writing F-PROTW.CFG, FPWNET.CFG and the task files. The checkbox "[X] Notify at Startup if Invalid" has been added to the Network preferences. If it is not checked, neither F-PROT for Windows nor F-Agent will display an error message at startup if the communications directory is inaccessible. The checkbox is not checked by default. When F-PROT for Windows is receiving bulletins, the mouse's pointer turns into an hourglass. F-PROT for Windows used to display an error message box if a remote CD-ROM drive was not ready when network scans were performed; this had the tendency to interrupt scheduled network scans. This error message has been removed. Now, the program will only write the message "ERROR READING DRIVE d:" to the report, and the scan can continue uninterrupted. New Viruses Detected by F-PROT 2.17
The following 77 viruses are now identified, but can not be removed as they overwrite or corrupt infected files. Some of them were detected by earlier versions of F-PROT, but not identified accurately. _1792 Anarchy Assassin.952 Assassin.959 Belorussia Burger.441.C Burger.560.AW Burger.560.AX Burger.560.AY Burger.560.AZ Burger.560.BA Burma.442.C Burma.442.D Consumed Demand.666.B Demand.789.B DS HLLO.4240 HLLO.8608 HLLO.Hepatitus HLLO.Joker.B HLLO.Number_1.E HLLO.Tyst HLLO.Virms IVP.200 IVP.365 IVP.374 IVP.478 Leprosy.573 Leprosy.666.I Leprosy.666.L Leprosy.666.N Leprosy.1306 Leprosy.47857 Leprosy.Lubec Leprosy.Skism.808.E Lseek Material Milan.WWT.125.D Mr_Twister Necropolis.D Ooops Over1644 Radish.8444 Radish.8466 SillyOR.131 Simple_Minded.123 Simple_Minded.207 Sum TheDraw Trivial.27.B Trivial.30.I Trivial.32.C Trivial.33.B Trivial.42.H Trivial.45.F Trivial.46.B Trivial.75 Trivial.82 Trivial.92 Trivial.99 Trivial.157 Trivial.346 Trivial.579 Trivial.Tom VCL.288 VCL.302 VCL.457 VCL.1297 VCL.Fire VCL.Mindless.423.D VCL.Mindless.423.E VCL.Mindless.423.F VCL.Mindless.423.G VCL.Monet.267 VCL.Monet.466 and VCL.Viral_Messiah.705 Zero-to-O.C The following 372 new viruses can now be removed.
