|                HACKED & TROJAN HORSE PROGRAMS:                      |

ARC.COM        HACKED    Someone keeps running SPACEMAKER or a similar
                         EXE squeezer on SEA, Inc.'s ARC archive
                         program, then uploading the resulting COM file
                         to BBS's without the author's permission. Not
                         kosher, whoever you are. SEA won't support the
                         COM version -- this is an unauthorized
                         modification.
ARC513.EXE     *TROJAN*  This hacked version of arc appears normal, so
                         beware!  It will write over track 0 of your
                         [hard] disk upon usage, destroying the disk.
BALKTALK       *TROJAN*  This program used to be a good PD utility,
                         but some one changed it to be trojan.
                         Now this program will write/destroy sectors
                         on your [hard] disk drive.  Use this with
                         caution if you aquire it, because it's more
                         than likely that you got a bad copy.
DISKSCAN.EXE   *TROJAN*  This was a PC-MAGAZINE program to scan a (hard)
                         disk for bad sectors, but then a joker edited
                         it to WRITE bad sectors.  Also look for this
                         under other names such as SCANBAD.EXE and
                         BADDISK.EXE...
DOSKNOWS.EXE   *TROJAN*  I'm still tracking this one down -- apparently
                         someone wrote a FAT killer and renamed it
                         DOSKNOWS.EXE, so it would be confused with the
                         real, harmless DOSKNOWS system-status utility.
                         All I know for sure is that the REAL
                         DOSKNOWS.EXE is 5376 bytes long. If you see
                         something called DOSKNOWS that isn't close to
                         that size, sound then alarm.  More info on this
                         one is welcomed -- a bagged specimen
                         especially.
EGABTR         *TROJAN*  BEWARE! Description says something like
                         "improve your EGA display," but when run it
                         deletes everything in sight and prints "Arf!
                         Arf! Got you!"
FILER.EXE      *TROJAN*  Labelled "Great new filing system" - wiped out
                         20 Megabyte HD.  I'm looking for confirmation
                         on this.
LIST60         HACKED    Vuern Buerg's LIST 5.1, patched to read 6.0.
QMDM110.ARC    HACKED    ONLY versions 1.10 and 1.10A!  They are
QMDM110A.ARC   HACKED    copies of 1.09, hacked to read 1.10.  There
                         have been rumors of a worm in 1.10, but I
                         haven't seen any evidence of it.  Other
                         versions are OK.
QUIKRBBS.COM   *TROJAN*  This Trojan horse advertises that it will
                         load RBBS-PC's message file into memory
                         2 times faster than normal.  What it really
                         does is copy RBBS-PC.DEF into an ASCII file
                         named HISCORES.DAT...
SECRET.BAS     *TROJAN*  BEWARE!! This may be posted with a note saying
                         it doesn't seem to work, and would someone
                         please try it; when you do, it formats your
                         disks.
STRIPES.EXE    *TROJAN*  BEWARE SYSOPS!! This one draws an American flag
                         (nice touch), but meanwhile it's busy copying
                         your RBBS-PC.DEF to another file (STRIPES.BQS)
                         so Bozo can log in later, download STRIPES.BQS,
                         and steal all your passwords.  Nice, huh!
VDIR.COM       *TROJAN*  This is a disk killer that Jerry Pournelle
                         wrote about in BYTE Magazine.  I have never
                         seen it.
WS36.COM       HACKED    Copy of Wordstar 3.4, patched to read 3.6.
WS2.BAT        *TROJAN*  This is a user-boring program that claims to 
                         be a word processor. Beware of starting - 
                         you'll fall asleep.

Soweit, ˙˙so ˙gut. ˙˙Der ˙weiteren ˙Verbreitung ˙solcher ˙Programme ˙˙und 
Verlngerung ˙dieser ˙Liste steht nichts entgegen, ˙da ja ˙auch ˙der ˙DOS 
Befehl REN inzwischen ganz gut dokumentiert ist.
