Hi Andreas, 
Andreas Marx to Paul Walker, 27 Mar 97 16:19. 
 DS>>> create.  Making one in Pascal, for instance, is *very* easy to do. 
 >> Generally only overwriting viruses, though. Other types are possible, 
 AM> And what's about companion viruses? It is as easy as writing 
Not really - for starters, I don't know of a pascal compiler that creates 
com files. If you don't have one of those, you have to write a virus which 
drops a .COM file which contains a fully working version of the virus. 
Not impossible, but certainly more hassle than it's worth. Gimme assembler 
any day.

...  Go ahead.  Steal me.
