DSME.Connie.2708

This is a harmless memory resident parasitic polymorphic virus. It is not linked with the DSME generator, but it contains a related DSME polymorphic code. It looks like “rough copies” of the DSME generator.
This virus hooks INT 21h, and writes itself to the end of COM files that are accessed. It contains the following text strings “C:\COMMAND.COM” and:

DSME-based Viruses

DSME (Dark Slayer’s Mutating Engine) is a polymorphic generator like the MtE or TPE generators. It creates the decryption routine and encrypts the virus body, then the virus saves this part of code in file on infection. This generator contains the internal string: “DSME v1.0″.
DSME.Apex
It’s a not dangerous not memory resident parasitic virus. It searches for .COM-files and writes itself to their ends. In September it manifests itself with sound and video effects. Tt displays the text string:

DS.512

Saturday, September 30th, 2006

Details
DS.512.a

It’s a dangerous memory resident parasitic stealth virus. It installs itself in system memory without correction of system memory blocks, which can cause a system crash. Then the virus hooks INT 13h (for stealth routine), INT 21h (for infection routine) and hits \COMMAND.COM file. Then it writes itself into the middle of COM- and EXE-files that are executed. It infects some files incorrectly, they halt the system on execution. It contains the internal string: “DS”.

DS.378

Saturday, September 30th, 2006

Details
DS.3783

This is a relatively harmless, memory resident multi-partite stealth virus. It infects COM, EXE, NewEXE files, the MBR of the hard drive and the boot sector of floppy disks. While infecting DOS files, the virus writes itself to the end of the file and modifies the file header. While infecting NewEXE files, the virus also writes itself to the end of the file, but modifies NewEXE header - creates new Segment Table, fixes other fields in NewEXE header and defines a new code segment that contains the virus’ code.
While infecting floppy disks, the virus formats an extra track (80th) and writes itself into there. While infecting the MBR, the virus writes itself to the hidden sectors of the first track. Then the virus overwrites the boot sector or the MBR with the loading code (1Ch bytes).
When the system is booting from an infected disk, the loader reads the virus’ code from the disk to address 7C00:0000 and passes control to virus installation routine. This routine hooks INT 13h, and returns control to the original bootstrap procedure.
INT 13h handler waits for the DOS loading process, then the virus patches a DOS kernel with CALL FAR VirusHandler calls and hooks INT 21h, 2Ah, an 2Fh. When the first program is executed, the virus allocates a block of UMB or conventional memory and copies itself to there. Then the virus infects executable (DOS COM, EXE and Windows NewEXE) files that are accessed and the boot sector of floppy disks.
When infected COM or EXE files is executed, the virus cuts a block of conventional memory, copies itself to there, hooks INT 13h, 21h, 2Ah, and 2Fh and stays memory resident. When an infected NewEXE file is executed, the virus installs itself memory resident by using DPMI calls.
The virus checks the file names that are accessing a file, and in case of archive, backup and disk checking utilities, disables several branches of its stealth routine. The list of such utilities appears as follows:
PKZIP ARJ RAR LHA TELIX BACKUP MSBACKUP CHKDSK

The virus detects its already loaded TSR copy by a INT 21h call with AX=187Fh and BX=4453h (”DS” string; thus the virus’ name), the memory resident copy returns BX=87A1h.

Drzip.512

It is not a dangerous memory resident encrypted parasitic virus. It hooks INT 21h and writes itself at the begin of COM files that are accessed. The virus also encrypts hole host file. On opening ZIP files the virus reads their headers, looks for ZIP archive signature and overwrites its. As a result ZIP archives become damaged.
The virus contains the text string:
[SMF.DrZip]

Drwatson.150

Saturday, September 30th, 2006

Details
Drwatson.1503

It is a memory resident very dangerous virus. When the virus starts, it creates the file C:\DRWATSON.COM, writes its copy into this file and then inserts the command @drwatson into the file AUTOEXEC.BAT beginning. Other files are not infected. While accessing to file AUTOEXEC.BAT the virus uses stealth algorithm.
This infector stops tracing: it types “Tracing mode has been destroyed” and exits to DOS. If the virus body is traced the infector erases the content of FAT of current disk and reboots the computer.

Drop.1131

It is a memory resident harmless virus. It infects COM- and EXE-files by standard way when they are accessed. It hooks INT 1Ch and 21h. Depending on its internal counter the infector can drop letters on the screen.

Dron.1024

It is not a dangerous memory resident parasitic virus. It hooks INT 21h and writes itself to the end of EXE-files that are executed. Depending on its internal counters the virus displays some picture (corrupted?) and the message:

The virus also contains the text string:
