Some of you please log out! But my Netscape doesn't have a "logout" button ... >> What is the last virus for windows 95? The answer is simple. Windows 95 is in fact the "last" in Windows 95 viruses. The signs are clear: * The program attempts to replicate itself onto all systems in sight, using a novel and unique algorithm that co-opts broadcast- media servers around the world to aid in its propagation. * The Windows 95 virus wipes out all existing operating systems on your hard disk. * Once it has taken over the hard disk it is *extremely* difficult to remove. The consensus is that the only way to eradicate it is to perform a low-level format of the disk. Symptoms of the Windows 95 virus: * Extremely sluggish system response * Applications software starts exhibiting gratuitous failure modes * The system sends peculiar network packets. The virus is particularly hostile towards remote systems connected via PPP links. Check the CERTS archives for further details.
