Has anybody heard of the Monkey_B virus? If so what does it do exactly? Also does anybody know where I could find a downloadable Win95 upgrade upgrading Windows 3.x to Win95?

The Monkey virus ( I'm not sure what the "B" variant has altered ) is a memory resident, stealth, boot infector that writes ( and encrypts!) the partition table to side 0, cyl 0, sector 3 of your hard disk. It then modifies your MBR to point to this location. When the virus is resident it infects any floppy ( not write protected )that is accessed by the system. If you need help with cleaning the Monkey from your system, try asking the geniuses at alt.comp.virus for some help. Keep in mind they argue with each other more than cypherpunks do! Here's a hint on cleanup, booting clean and running Fdisk/mbr will remove the virus from your hard disk, but it WILL NOT restore your partition table! Eric
