AntiExe

A boot sector virus that can infect floppy boot records and hard disk master boot records. AntiExe will infect hard drives only when an attempt to boot from an infected diskette is made. Once the virus has infected the hard drive, all non-write-protected floppies used in the machine will be infected. AntiExe was first discovered in February, 1995.
