     Comments     : The Alien New Beat Virus is a really boring virus.
                    It changes the CoolCapture and for infection it
                    patches the DoIO()-Vector. Additionally the virus
                    patches the FindResident()-Vector. After the next
                    reset the virus sets the ColdCapture to the virus
                    value.

                    The virus itself is located at adress $20000. 
                    This location can cause many GURUS, because some 
                    other programms can overwrite the virus with the 
                    own code. The DoIO() check routine is VERY DANGEROUS 
                    for HD-Users. Be careful. In the Bootblock you can
                    read:

                    "THIS IS THE ALIEN NEW BEAT BOOT!"
                    "THE BOOT WHICH CREATES A NEW DIMENSION"
                    "IN MEMORY. THIS IS A NEW STYLE OF VIRUS-HUNTING!!!"
                    "179092 V1.0 Ir 04/01/1989"
                    "You won`t belive it but this thing kills"
                    "SCA, ByteBandit,DASA (ByteWarrior), AIDS AND"
                    "Northstar virus !!!!"

               NOTE: This is P.U.R.E. bullshit.
