British researchers claim to have found Windows 95 virus

By SUE LEEMAN Associated Press______

LONDON Software saboteurs have created the first com­ puter virus specifically targeted at Microsoft’s Windows 95 program, British researchers said Sunday. The virus can corrupt programs so that they no longer function, and then spread to other users’ machines, Paul Ducklin, an analyst for the British software company Sophos, told The I Associated Press. “It is the first virus we’ve seen that is written specifically for Windows 95,” said Ducklin, whose company specializes in writing programs that destroy viruses. “So, although it is not particularly well-writ­ ten, Boza will go down in history,” Ducklin said. Analysts have named the virus Boza after a Bulgarian liquor “so powerful that just looking at it will give you a headache,” Ducklin said. Fortunately for the millions of users of Windows 95, the virus does not appear to be See the candidates battle for the particularly contagious. “To infect someone else’s machine, you would have to give them an infected program, and they would have to run it,” Alan Solomon, chairman positions of of the S and S International software firm, told The Independent on Sunday newspaper. “Most people don’t swap programs around like that,” Solomon said. Student Body President Ducklin said Boza is not yet "in the wild” — computer talk for a virus that is replicating itself and | on regular users’ personal computers. So far, it is circulating mainly among compa­ nies that make anti-virus programs, Ducklin said. Software is available to destroy it. Vice President Computer analysts do not know who made the # ACTION virus, although there is a clue in one of the mes­ STUDENT GOVERNMENT sages that Boza occasionally throws on computer screens: “VLAD Australia does it again with the world’s first Win95 virus,” a reference to a well- known group of virus makers. Microsoft released Windows 95 in August with­ out an anti-virus program. The Redmond, M onday, February 5 Wash -based company early on had to fight a perception that one version of Windows 95 came with a virus already on the diskette. Library A uditorium Microsoft 95 differs from the company’s previ­ ous operating systems because it can run pro­ grams whose instructions are 32 bits long, 6 : 3 0 p m rather than 16 bits, allowing greater flexibility through the increased memory. Boza is written specifically to corrupt 32-bit programs. The virus attaches itself to existing programs. page 6 The Observer • NATIONAL NEWS Monday, February 5, 1996 Record cold grips nation Teacher disarms student By ROGER PETTERSON after three die in rampage Associated Press______C old w eather across the U.S. By NICHOLAS GERANIOS CANADA T emperatures more than 50 - , Extreme cold temperatures and snow caused much damage Associated Press______degrees below zero are starting |j \ i across United States. to take a toll on the little north­ MOSES LAKE, Wash.

■ S oap Opera Updates DAYS OF OUR LIVES

H ave no fear, we are back after a two week hiatus. First of all, Lexy discovered that Celeste is her mother; however, Celeste has no intention of telling her who her father is (Stefano?). Will Lexy ever find out her real name is Alexandra Dimera Carter? Is this the secret that will bring down all of Salem ? Kate’s back! Yes folks, she’s still chopping up the catch of the day somewhere in the big blue ocean. Fortunately for her, she has found a friend in fellow fisherman Jose, who has vowed to help her escape. Kate has revenge in mind for Vivian who is content at the moment with her growing coziness with Victor. Carrie and Austin are growing farther and farther apart, especially now that the “brilliant” Austin has decided that Carrie and Lucas are having sex. He, the very perceptive Austin, figured this all out from a single phone call made to Carrie’s hotel room where she was in the shower and Lucas answered the phone. He just seems to get dumber every week. However, the rumor mills do say that Victor will eventually (after a possible affair between Sami and Austin - Yuk!) expose Sami’s scheme and reunite Carrie and Austin. Sami’s plan to be with Austin will not be helped when Will gets sick, needs a blood transfusion, and Lucas’, not Austin’s, blood matches. Once again Hope is presumed dead - a thoroughly exhausted story line. This time as a result of an avalanche and despite the frantic searching by Bo, John, Kristen, Peter, Jack and Jennifer. Unfortunately for Hope, Jude is the one who found her and as the commercial states, her nightmare has only just begun. It’s a little surprising Hope didn’t lose an ear or something to frost bite considering Jennifer got hypothermia after being out­ side for a few hours. We suppose it all boils down to the creative juices of the Days’ writing team. It seems as if John's fate is now sealed due to the discovery of a video in which Tony says that John will eventually kill him as he discovers his past. Actually it makes no sense, and the trial itself is more of a farce than anything else, but of course, Peter’s going to use this to convict John. The rumors on this one are that John will be convicted on February 9th, and even finds himself in the gas chamber on February 16th. But don’t fret John lovers, he will be exonerated later this spring. In the meantime, however, this video has “confirmed” Kristen’s doubts about John, and she is seriously considering the possibility that John did kill Tony. Before we go, we should set the record straight about Eileen Davidson (Kristen)’s true sex. It turns out she has always been a she. The rumor was started when a person who did have a sex change and looked remarkably similar to Kristen, showed up on talk shows around the country in the late ‘80s. Although rather 0 ACCENT PROFILE manly, Kristen does have ovaries. What to look for this week: Stefano will find out the identity of the Lady in white on Monday, February 5th. Interestingly Liptak conquers SM C stereotype enough, rumor has it that it is John’s mom.
