Cap Virus

Information about the Cap Virus:

This virus infects Word documents, templates and the NORMAL.DOT file of Word 6 and Word for Windows 95. The virus code is contained in 10 macros named "CAP", "AutoExec", "AutoOpen", "FileSave", "FileSaveAs", "FileClose", "FileOpen", "AutoClose", "FileTemplates" and "ToolsMacro". Cap is a stealth macro virus. Its macro code is encrypted.

When the first infected document is opened by Word the virus gets control and it checks whether the Global Template file (NORMAL.DOT) is infected. If it is not infected then the virus copies its macros to NORMAL.DOT and there by infecting it. Then onwards the virus will be infecting all the new document files created in that computer.

Cap virus alters the menus of Word to hide its presence. It does not let the user save the file in the RTF format.

Cap virus first appeared in May 1997 and it is in the wild.
