Name: Burglar
Also known as: Grangrave
Type: Memory resident executable infector
Affects: PCs
Discovered: November 30, 1998; from Taiwan
Description: Burglar infects executables on the sytem when they are accessed either directly, or via DOS commands such as DIR and ATTRIB. Stealth capabilities are used to hide changes in files sizes due to infection. The virus also prevents itself from infecting .EXE files with the letters S or V in the name (typically found in many anti-virus software applications).
If the virus infects at 14 minutes after any hour, it will display a small flashing message, "Buglar/H", in the upper left corner of the screen.
