Behavior
The virus checks if it is already memory, searching for the value 0AD75h. If WIN.SYS is found in the root of drive C:, it will not become memory resident or infect files. If neither of these conditions exists, the virus becomes memory resident. It infects any Windows Portable Executable. Blackbat avoids infecting files with "AV", "AN", and "F-" in their names, effectively preventing it from attacking antivirus products. It appends its code to the end of the file.
On December 8, the virus delivers a payload, displaying the message box "Happy BirthDay :-)".
