    Virus Help Denmark: xvs.library V33.36 
Die Bibliothek zum Scannen von Viren 'xvs.library', die jetzt von
Jan Erik Olausen und Georg Hoermann gepflegt wird, wurde auf Version
33.36 aktualisiert. Diese Library kann zusammen mit VirusExecutor,
VirusChecker II oder VirusZ benutzt werden. Lesen Sie im Anschluss
die Original-Meldung:
  
A new update of  the "xvs.library" has been released today. This is a major update,
and you should download the update right away, just read about the changes.
  
And what must be one of the best news is the Antivirus scene in 2001, the 'man' him
self is back on the Amiga scene. Georg Hoermann the org. programmer of VirusZ III
and xvs.library is BACK. Georg Hoermann and Jan Erik Olausen will work together
with the update of xvs.library in the future
  
Info about the new update of xvs.library:
  
Name: xvs.library v33.36   
Achive name: xvslibrary.lha 
Archive size: 82.452 byte  
Release date: 25 October 2001 
Programmer: Jan Erik Olausen & Georg Hoermann
  
 News for v33.36:
 
- After several years on a journey the sourcecodes finally came
   back home;-) Yes, it's me (Georg Hörmann) again, still alive
   and kicking virus asses... Thanks must go to Alex van Niel and
   Jan Erik Olausen for keeping the project alive!
   This update was done by me alone, but in the future, Jan Erik
   and I will keep the library up-to-date together.
 - Rearranged and enhanced the security stuff inside the library
   for 100% detection of any (illegal) function patches. Programs
   like 'ZeebsVS' will no longer work with this version. Thanks
   must go to Zeeball for his demonstration of security gaps in
   the older versions.
 - Added support for 'IOZ (512 Bytes)' linkvirus. Thanks go to
   Zeeball for sending it.
 - Added support for 'Rexxfunc' trojan. Thanks must go to Zeeball
   and Jan Andersen for sending it.
 - Totally redesigned the scanner for virus tasks/processes. The
   new code scans all tasks/processes for every known virus in just
   one step and can even handle several running copies of one virus
   correctly (thanks Zeeball for the hint).
 - Checked ALL the stuff that has been added in my absence since
   xvs.library 33.18. See below for what I have changed/fixed.
   Thanks must go to Jan Andersen, Jan Erik Olausen and Zeeball
   for sending me the missing viruses and lots of other stuff.
   Special thanks to Zeeball for the ZeebsVS sourcecodes!
 - Fixed file recognition for 'Bastard Installer 1'.
 - Renamed 'Miami 4.0 Fake Installer' to 'MUI 4.0 Fake Installer',
   because that's what it really is.
 - Renamed 'CCCP Clone' bootvirus to 'Anal Rapes' (its real name),
   fixed its memory recognition and added it to linkvirus brain.
 - Removed recognition for 'Doubledensity' bootblock, this is just
   an intro boot.
 - Fixed longword access to odd address in 'Jode Capullos 2' file
   recognition. This caused crashes on 68000 systems.
 - Fixed memory removal code for 'Zakahackandpatch' and 'Zakapior'.
   The processes of these viruses might stay in memory up to one
   minute after they have been detected, that's not a bug, but
   their own call to Delay() that we have to wait for.
 - Fixed recognition for 'Hitch-Hiker 5.00 Installers' and added
   the plain version created by xfdmaster.library 39.13.
 - Renamed 'MadRoger Short' to 'NoName (248 Bytes)' to follow the
   guidelines of VTC Hamburg (idea by Jan Andersen).
 - Renamed '212 Bytes Link' linkvirus to 'NoName (212 Bytes)' and
   fixed its memory removal code.
 - Renamed 'Explode Trojan' linkvirus to 'Port 9876' and removed
   the repair code, we can use 'Fungus' code instead.
 - Renamed 'Explode Trigger' filevirus to 'Port 9876 Trigger'.
 - Renamed 'Port 4097 Installer' to 'Port 4097' and added memory
   removal code for the trojan's process. The process will stay
   in memory for a while without doing any harm, see explanation
   at 'Zaka...' above.
 - Fixed 'Hitch-Hiker 5.00' memory removal code. The process gets
   killed immediately, the patched stack addresses will disappear
   one by one after a while without doing harm.
 - Fixed memory and file recognition and the repair code for
   'Motaba 3' linkvirus. Now it restores the correct library jumps
   and can repair even files that have been damaged by the virus
   (bad branch offsets!).
 - Fixed memory and file recognition and the repair code for
   'Bastard' linkvirus. Now restores all patched functions (inside
   asl.library and VirusCheckerII) and repairs even big files with
   bad branch offsets.
 - File recognition for 'Bastard Installer 2' will now only detect
   the plain, uncrunched virus as xfdmaster.library unpacks this
   file correctly.
 - Fixed brain entry of 'Port 2421' linkvirus (wrong virus length)
   and added memory recognition. Moved 'Port 2421 Installer' from
   linkvirus to filevirus brain as it cannot reproduce itself.
 - Fixed 'Smeg 2a' and 'Smeg 2b' memory removal code. The processes
   get killed immediately and the patched stack addresses disappear
   one by one after a while without doing harm.
 - Fixed repair code for 'Penetrator 2001' linkvirus to handle both
   ways of infection and added memory removal code (removes the task
   and 2 of 3 processes, the other one usually should already have
   been run out or crashed because of bad coding!).
 - Fixed memory recognition for 'Bobek 2' linkvirus and tuned the
   file recognition/repair code. Thanks to Jan Erik Olausen for his
   bug report about the beta-release of this code.
  
TO DO:
- Add some code to close TCP ports opened by several trojans.
 - Add Neurotic Death 1-5 linkviruses. These are highly polymorphic, but
  crash on my system if I try to infect some test files. I have received
  several infected files already from other persons and will try to find
  some solution for these viruses in the near future.
 - Try to get and add GlobVec linkvirus. The only one who has it is Heiner
  Schneegold (author of VT-Schutz) and VTC Hamburg, but Heiner doesn't
  give his permission to the VTC to send me the virus :(
  
Authors: 
Currently  we are developing xvs.library together, so for bug reports, other
comments,  new  ideas  etc.   it's enough if you choose one of the following
addresses:
  
Georg Hörmann, Martinswinkelstr. 16c, 82467 Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany 
email: ghoermann@gmx.de or ghoermann@epost.de

Remember if you use VirusZ, VirusChecker, Safe and VirusExecutor you
must update the xvs.library to have recog for the latest viruses.....   (ps)
