On 18 November the virus several times displays a text message.
The virus contains the text strings:

Lapiddan.45

Details
Lapiddan.457

These viruses infect SYS files, and write themselves to the end of the file. The viruses stay memory resident as device drivers that are loaded into the system memory during DOS installation. To infect the files the viruses hook INT 21h.
The viruses do not change driver’s Strategy and Interrupt addresses, but correct the NextDevice field - they save the offset of the virus code into there. As a result DOS loads any infected file as two different device drivers.
“Lapiddan.457″ is a harmless memory resident parasitic virus, it does not manifest itself in any way. This virus contains the text string:
lapiddan

“Lapiddan.649,1137″ on September 13th halt the computer and blink the screen and Num/Caps/Scroll Lock keys. They contain the texts:
“Lapiddan.649″: [ESQUILO] by Xavirus Hacker * Programmed in Paraguay
“Lapiddan.1137″: [XAVIER!] by Xavirus Hacker

“Lapiddan.1137″ also drops the “Xav.Xavier.367″ COM parasitic virus.

Lapidario.766

These are very dangerous nonmemory resident encrypted parasitic viruses. They search for .COM files except COMMAND.COM, and write themselves to the end of the file. Then the viruses delete the CHKLIST.MS file. On 18th of any month the viruses erase the disk sectors, and display the messages:
“Lapidario.766,768″: Lapidario - V1.0 - Argentina 1993 -

It is a very dangerous memory resident parasitic polymorphic virus. It hooks INT 21h and writes itself to the end of COM and EXE files that are executed, opened or accessed with FindFirst/Next DOS calls (both FCB and ASCII formats).
The virus has bugs and may halt the system while installing or while infecting files. On September 19th it erases the hard drive sectors. It contains the text string:

Lamerma

Lamerman

It is a very dangerous memory resident multipartite virus. It infects the MBR of the hard drive and overwrites EXE files that are created or copied, i.e. the virus does not affect existing EXE files but newly created/modified files only.
When an infected file is executed the virus affects the MBR and halts the computer, while infecting the virus fools the BIOS virus protection by a simple keyboard trick. On rebooting the virus stays memory resident, hooks INT 13h and overwrites EXE files on writing to them.
The virus contains the text string:
Lamerman .01

Lamento.269

Details
Lamento.2690

It is a very dangerous memory resident encrypted parasitic virus. It hooks INT 21h and writes itself to the end of COM and EXE files that are accessed. While installing the virus also infects the C:\COMMAND.COM and C:\DOS\MODE.COM files. The virus checks the file name, and does not infect the files that begin with any of the strings:
PCVIR CENTINEL SCAN CLEAN VSHIELD ATM TB CPAV MSAV TNT FINDVIR VC VREMOVE
VSMENU VSCHK MM. KEYB.

On January 21st the virus sets the system date to January, 20th, then deletes C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT and C:\CONFIG.SYS files, renames to the random names all the files in subdirectories of C: drive:
\DOS \MSDOS \SYS \DRDOS \IBMDOS
\WINDOWS \WIN \WIN3 \WIN30 \WIN31 \WIN311

While processing Windows’ directories the virus looks also for SYSTEM subdirectory. Then the virus displays the messages:
Lamento tener que comunicarle que hoy es 21 de Enero all
… ha sido una cortes¡a de Woi

Lamego.722

These are relatively harmless memory resident parasitic viruses. They hook INT 21h, and write themselves to the end of COM files that are executed. While installing into the system memory, the viruses also infect the C:\COMMAND.COM file. In August, the viruses decrypt and display the following message:
(C) Virús LAMEGO 1.0
Cópia de virús ilegal all

The viruses also contain the text strings:
C:\COMMAND.COM

It is a dangerous memory resident parasitic virus. It hooks INT 21h and writes itself to the end of COM and EXE files that are accessed. The virus does not infect file, if its name contains the letters: MM, ID or SC. On 31th the virus also hooks INT 1Ch and in some time decrypts and displays the message and halts the computer:
+————————————–+

Kustanai.207

Saturday, January 27th, 2007

Details
Kustanai.2071

It is not a dangerous memory resident encrypted parasitic virus. It infects COM and EXE files. While infecting the virus encrypts and writes its code to the end of file, then writes decryption routine to the middle of file at random selected address, then modifies file header.
The virus intercepts LOGIN utility execution and stores all keystrokes that are entered during LOGIN’s run (to do that the virus uses INT 9 hook). While infecting next files the virus writes to the file’s end these keystrokes as well as its actual code. As a result the virus a) is able “to steal” network passwords; b) increases file length by VirusLength (2071 bytes) plus keystrokes buffer length (up to 255 bytes).
When an infected file is executed, the virus hooks INT 9, 21h and stays memory resident. By hooking INT 21h the virus runs its infection routine: it affects files that are executed, opened, renamed or created. When anti-virus programs AIDSTEST, ADINF, DRWEB, SCAN are executed, the virus temporary disables infection of file opening, but infects files when they are closed.
On 10th of any month the virus displays the message:
This is Kustanai-Login. Is devoted Kuzmina Olya. TVA-96 me 16!
