did you run it from a clean bootable disk or the program detected it as active in memory as well aside from the MBR?

Woah, lucky it was .A variant.. The .C and .B variants are somewhat nasty as they relocate the boot sector of the active partition...you should have screenshoted it! anyways, you are welcome

could be a symptom of a boot sector virus infection not allowing data to be written onto infected disk. you can try my portable antivirus software, it can detect and remove a handful of common boot sector viruses

use my antivirus to clean Quicky.1376 virus

that would be great..thank you

nothing fancy, I was just curious as to what known boot sector virus is it? booted the .imz file in DOSBox-X to infect the hdd- if it does and run my tool to check if something is detected... I was just hoping to find new variants of viruses that are misidentified and existed "in the wild" in...

great, you need to ZIP it and put a short password

can you send the .imz file?

Avira Free or Bitdefender Free

Update v2.01 Beta + Virus List

it seems that the "possible virus" alarm was due to running FDISK /MBR and not a virus infection after all.. about those files you can use a file format renaming utility to rename them to their proper file extensions like .exe, .jpg, .doc, .txt etc..

There isn't a way to convert these files back to their original file names since the files in question were cross-linked with other files or the info in the FAT which points to the location of the files in the disk was corrupted.. NDD usually saves the "what remains of" contents of these file...

it has Stoned.AA :p

I will make some minor enhancements and detection in a couple of days such adding some boot sector viruses signatures, that were present in Wildlist.org "in the wild list" from 1995 up until 1999 but were not previously included. In the meantime just added some screenshots and updated links...

oh sweeet thank you for the inclusion. now regarding to why it is still in Beta, there are couple of reasons, but 2 of the major reasons are (1) had tons of features that I wanted to incorporate into it before I make a final release, like the addition of Polymorphic virus detection engine...
