Virus Help Denmark: Zwei neue Virenwarnungen
Von Virus Help Denmark wird vor zwei neuen Viren gewarnt. Bei der ersten Warnung handelt es sich um einen neuen Tojan-Virus, der in den Archiven namens AME-DSD.lha und PSL-KMJ.lha im Aminet gefunden wurde. Bei der zweiten Meldung handelt es sich um einen Linkvirus, der vermutlich schon älter ist. Lesen Sie im Anschluss die Original-Meldungen:


1.
Two archives found on Aminet contains a new trojan. It is said to be AGA demos, but if you run these demo's on a PC using 'WinUAE', your system will be deleted. These demos' comes from a Polish demo group. Why they would program something like this, I don't know.

This is some info about the two archives:

Trojan name... : AME-DSD Trojan (Name might be changed later)
Trojan file... : dsd-main
Trojan size... : 93.924 buyes
Trojan archive : AME-DSD.lha
Archive size.. : 6.927.166 bytes
Archive info.. : Dog Star Descends by Amnesty (CGX&AHI compatibile)

Trojan name... : PSL-KMJ Trojan (Name might be change later)
Trojan file... : main
Trojan size... : 49.308 bytes
Trojan archive : PSL-KMJ.lha
Archive size.. : 5.530.365 bytes
Archive info.. : Kiss My Jazz by Pic Saint Loup (AGA/CGX)

In the code for these archives you can read:

------------ Code start -----------------------

Warning!!! UAE System for lamers detected!!! - System will reboot after mouse button... run c:delete s:startup-sequence force quiet >NIL:

------------ Code end -------------------------

It is not legal to release destructive programs to the public, and we will see what we can do with this. In almost every country the programmer of such destructive programs can go to jail for this kind of programming.

The xvs.library package will be released very soon.....

Thanks to 'Urban' for the info about the archive.


2.
A new linkvirus has been found a few days ago, we are not sure if this virus is in the wild. It was send to directly to Zbigniew Trzcionkowski (The programmer of Safe). Zbigniew received one infected file. This new virus, is a clone of the "Bobek-2" linkvirus, and is named "Bobek-3". This is able to disable the antivirus programs.

We do not know if this virus was released in any way, so if you get a requester poping up, telling you that something is trying to disable the xvs.library, please let us know.

This is what we know of the virus:

Virus name: Bobek-3
Virus Type: Linkvirus
Virus size: about 2.000 bytes (Uses polmorphic engine)

Well, it looks like the Polish virus group is back in action. But maybe not for long. Things will happen very soon.

Thanks to 'Zbigniew' for sending the archive. (ps)

The OOP4A-Project joins forces with PowerD and WizardClasses
"The OOP4A-Project joins forces with PowerD and WizardClasses"
"Stefan Robl, author of OS 3.9's AmiDock, has agreed to support the OOP4A-Project by providing his class system 'WizardClasses' which is extensively used in all of his programs. The class system also contains - among many other classes - a GUI class system. We hope to release a first package somewhen in Q1, 2002 - this will enable programs using OOP4A to also use GUI in a truly object oriented way.
Martin Kuchinka, author of the PowerD programming language, agreed too to support the OOP4A-Project within PowerD.

New Features in this weekend's release of OOP4A are argument types and methode overloading. These are the last basic oop functions which had to be implemented, so that the next releases will concentrate on building new classes."

OOP4A stands for Object Oriented Programming for All and offers full oop support to nearly any programming language used on the Amiga. Project start was the around the 5.10.2001. German Pages see title link.

On Friday, 7th December 2001, at about 11:00 GMT Back to the Roots will temporarily go offline, since we upgrade the server's harddisks, memory and operating system.

If all performs well it should be back online in less than one day, and should allow our future updates and services to be even more massive :)

Sorry for the inconvenience. (ps)

Amiga Inc.


Amiga board elects Frank Wilde as Chairman of the Board (Update)
Nachtrag:
Carsten Schröder von Amiga Aktuell erklärt plausibel in einem Special die genannten Begriffe:
"Vorab zur Klarheit: Bei amerikanischen Unternehmen ist der »Chairman« der Vorsitzende des »Board of Directors«, einer Art Verwaltungsrat, der von den Unternehmensgesellschaftern gewählt wird und die grundlegende Firmenpolitik festlegt sowie die »Executive Officers«, die für das Tagesgeschäft zuständig sind, ernennt. Damit hat der Chairman - zumindest formal - einen größeren Einfluss als beispielsweise der CEO (Chief Executive Officer) eines Unternehmens."

Wilde brings 18 years of experience in the personal computer industry to Amiga's Board of Directors

(December 6, 2001) The Board of Directors for Amiga Inc. have elected Frank Wilde as its new Chairman of the Board. 

Mr. Wilde will bring his many years of experience and leadership to Amiga to help expand its business into new markets while releasing new products.

Mr. Wilde joins Amiga from Ravisent Technologies where he was President and Chief Executive Officer. Frank was appointed Chief Executive Officer of RAVISENT Technologies Inc. in April of 1998, a year after joining the company as Director and President.  Wilde brings over eighteen years of sales, marketing and business development experience in the computer industry holding key industry positions at IBM, Dell Computer Corporation and Memorex Telex Corporation. He has over 15 years P&L experience and is a veteran of six startup companies and has led or been a team member of companies that have raised over 300 million in venture funding. He strongly believes in developing highly competitive and fast growing organizations that enable individuals and teams to grow and develop their professional capabilities in such a way that shareholder value is maximized. Wilde was instrumental in the planning and execution of the company's transition from a hardware company to a software Intellectual Property licensing company. Under his leadership, RAVISENT was able to raise $18 million in private funding in June of 1998. Wilde also led the company through the IPO process, taking the company public in July of 1999, raising $61.4 million.   RAVISENT's flagship product family, CinePlayer, offers consumers a single look-and-feel PC solution for interactive playback of a wide variety of multimedia formats - including CD Audio, MPEG audio, MPEG video, DVD, Dolby Digital audio, MP3 audio, LPCM audio, digital television (DTV), analog (traditional) television, high definition television (HDTV), and "time-shifted" television broadcasts (so-called digital video recorder files or DVR).

“I had many choices on where I wanted to go next and where the best opportunity for the future was.  Bill McEwen and I had been speaking for many months on business plans and other issues, and after meeting with the team, and viewing the technology and their partners, there was no better choice for me than joining Amiga" said Frank Wilde, Chairman of Amiga, Inc. "The Amiga has an amazing past and is well known at Ravisent, but seeing what I have seen of the technology, they have even a brighter future, and I am pleased to be here".

"Frank brings a level of expertise and knowledge that is second to none. His level of excitement and dedication to Amiga, will be seen shortly as we continue to build and release new products" said Bill McEwen, President and CEO of Amiga, Inc.   "I look forward to working with Frank, and the two of us working with the community and our partners on building a very solid future".

Over the years, Wilde and RAVISENT received recognition from numerous business and technology organizations. Most recently, RAVISENT was recognized as the #7 in the 2000 Deloitte & Touche Fast 50 - Fastest Growing Technology Companies in Eastern Pennsylvania. He was also recognized as a Technology Pioneer, an award that is developed jointly by the World Economic Forum and Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu to recognize the world's fastest growing, most technologically innovative companies. In 1999, RAVISENT was named the #1 in the Deloitte & Touche Fast 50 - Fastest Growing Technology Companies in Eastern Pennsylvania. Also, RAVISENT was recognized as the #9 in the 1999 in the Deloitte & Touche Fast 500 - Fastest Growing Technology Companies in the United States. In April of 1999, RAVISENT was ranked #8 in the Electronic Business list of Top 20 Small Electronics Companies. Frost & Sullivan granted RAVISENT the 1998 Marketing Engineering Competitive Strategy Award because the company was able to create and implement an effective competitive strategy. 

Wilde received a Bachelor's degree in business administration from Seton Hall University. He is a member of the American Management Association, American Electronics Association, USA Reserves Officers Association, Special Forces Decade Association and the Army Aviation Association of Aviators and Sigma Tau Gamma fraternity. He has also been named to Who's Who in International Business and awarded the Republican National Committee "Businessman of the Year" award for 1999.
