Fsck!

I'm happily working on my MSX computer, I go to Basic, back to DOS and...
"Did you know today's ZAPP's birthday ???"

Aaaahhh nooo let it not be true!
MY FIRST MSX VIRUS!!!

Read (a little) more:

Need to find one of those antivirus things, what were they called again?

And I wonder if more people are caught in this - kind of embarassing - state... Try it out! Make sure your date is set to 20-8, go to Basic, and back to DOS. If you see something about Zapp, you can share my pain !

Not at the moment, but I have the virus infected on some of my MSX backup cd's. So it's quite risky here

I remember that one hehe.. It only infects .Com files (and replaces the header of these files)

Never thought this message would appear after so many years hahaha

NYYRIKKI had the virus as well, recently. I sent him TCAV.COM which scans your COM-files and gets rid of the virus if you have it.

Btw, for one thing it was nice to see my MSX's clockchip was styll in sync with the real date . Funny thing btw - the last thread about Zapp on this forum was exactly one year ago ^_^.
