INTRODUCTION
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Bootblock.library/brainfile is an attempt to make life a little bit
easier for programmers of anti-virus utilities, diskcopy programs,
directory utilities, disk packers and for whoever who wants to check the
bootblock of some device, and of course for you, the user, who are dead-
tired of those %$£&%$& viruses... The library has some easy-to-use
functions to read the brainfile, and to check a bootblock with it. See the
BootblockLibrary.doc for more info about that!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
LEGAL STUFF
~~~~~~~~~~~
The BBBF package is freely distributable as long as all of its files are
included in their original form without additions, deletions, or
modifications of any kind, with the following exception: If your program
uses the Bootblock.library/Bootblock.brainfile then they may be distributed
along with it. If you use this library in your program you must give
credit to SHI (like the note below) and the programmer in your
documentation. The BBBF package may not be used in a commercial program
without written permission by Safe Hex International. Only a nominal fee
(maximum 6$) may be charged for the distribution of BBBF. This software is
provided "AS IS" without warranty of any kind, either expressed or implied.
By using the BBBF package, you agree to accept the entire risk as to the
quality and performance of the program.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A NOTE ABOUT SAFE HEX INTERNATIONAL:
If you know a virus programmer you can get a reward of $ 1000 for
supplying his name and address. The fact is that the law punishes data
crime very severely. (5 years in jail in most countries).
We are an international group with more than 250 members who have started
trying to stop the spread of virus. Let me give you some example:
1. Our motto is: "Safe Hex", who dares do anything else today?".
2. A virus bank containing all well known virus killer programmes.
3. We help people to get money back lost by virus infection.
4. We write articles about virus problems for 8 magazines.
5. We release the newest and the best virus killers around.
6. We have more than 20 "Virus Centers" worldwide where you
can get free virus help by phoning our "Hotline", and the
newest killers translated n your own language at very little
cost.
7. We are thinking, that you can see how important your support
is too, if you are using one of the following programs, which
are actual using our anti-virus.libraries:
* Virus Checker by Johan Veldthuis
* Virus Scanner by Gabriele Greco
* Fides Professional by John Lohmeyer
* Fides Checker by John Lohmeyer
* DMS by ParCon Software.
* D-Copy by Stefan Bernbo
* X-Xopy by Cachet Software (commercial)
* Disk Ute Copy by Alchemy Software.
* Xtruder (a BBS!) viruskiller by Martin Wulffeld
* MT-Copy by Gert-Jan Strik, is doing a file- and
boot virus check while you are copying disks and
is extremly fast too... supprised?
PLEASE.....attention to send new viruses because without YOUR SUPPORT TOO,
we can't stop the future virus spreading! ----------------

BRAINFILE HISTORY
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Version 1.00 (20.04.93)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Added viruses: Blizzard Protector 3.3, Ingo, Highlander, Shit and VIPHS.
Thanks Erik!
Removed the beta suffix.
I also added a bunch of home-made icons for all the files.
Added protos-files for the Programmers-directory.
This brainfile knows 163 original viruses.
Version 1.01 (25.05.93)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
All viruses will from now on be sorted in alphabethical order.
Version 1.02 (06.08.93)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Added virus: Access Forbidden.
Appearantly the last version of the library did not work for some people.
I don't know when and I don't know why, but appearantly it does work now...
I made a Contents.txt file with a list of the contents in this archive.
Also the ListKnown program didn't work from WorkBench. It now uses IconX
for that purpose.
More than two months since the last update. Why? Because I've not got any
new virus since June, that's why. We know they are out there, but we can't
really do anything about it if you don't send them to us. Please read the
file "Wanted Viruses" carefully!
