============================================================================ PC Viruses in the Wild - March, 1998 ============================================================================ This is a cooperative listing of viruses reported as being in the wild by 46 virus information professionals. The basis for these reports are virus incidents where a sample was received, and positively identified by the participant. Rumors and unverified reports have been excluded. This report is cumulative. That is, this is not just a report of which were seen last month. Monthly data is received from most participants, but the new data is added to the old. Participants are expected to let us know when to remove their name from a virus that they haven't seen in a year and a half or so. The list should not be considered a list of "the most common viruses", however, since no specific provision is made for a commonness factor. This data indicates only "which" viruses are in the wild, but viruses reported by many (or most) participants are obviously widespread. The WildList is currently being used as the basis for in-the-wild virus testing of anti-virus products by Virus Bulletin and Secure Computing. Additionally, a virus collection based upon the WildList is being used in an effort to standardize the naming of common viruses. The WildList - (c)1993-1998 by Joe Wells - info@wildlist.org ============================================================================ The section below gives the names of participants, along with their geographic region, organization, and anti-virus product (if any.) The locations with an asterisk (*) note that the reports are regional, all others being multinational or global.

Technically, this first list is "the" WildList according to my original specification, which required viruses to be verified in the wild by a minimum of two participants. A supplemental list follows that contains viruses reported by single participants. If a virus listed has minor variants, but no specific variant letter is attached, the virus meant is the .A variant. Please note that all the MS Word macro viruses are grouped under WM/name. + Viruses marked with a plus sign (+) are new to the main list this month.

By design, the WildList is a list of viruses verified as being in the wild by a minimum of two WildList participants. The viruses listed below do not currently meet that criteria. This additional list includes viruses reported by a single participant and are often either moving onto the main list, or dropping off of it. Please note especially that this list also tends to be more of a regional reporting mechanism. For example, a virus is often reported as very common by one regional participant, but is found nowhere else in the world. Viruses marked with a minus sign (-) dropped off the main list this month.

============================================================================ WildList Sorted by Frequency ============================================================================ This is not a prevalence table. It does not show how common each virus is. Rather it is the WildList sorted by the number of participants that report each virus. This section gives the names, types, and aliases of the most frequently reported viruses. These viruses have been reported by at least one third of the WildList participants. They are sorted with the most frequently reported first. A more complete alias list is also provided.

To explain: Jm reported Bleah.A on the supplemental. The sample sent in by Jm matched the Bleah.B sent in by Fp. Due to the increased number of reports received for the month of March (thanks to all the participants who sent in reports along with samples!) you will note many changes in frequency section. Of note are more name changes, specifically the wholesale change of "WM." to "WM/" , "XM." to "XM/" , "W97M." to "W97M/" and "X97M." to "X97M/" We are continuously seeking WildList participants, especially for regional reporting in the following countries: Bulgaria, Chile, China, Greece, Indonesia, Philippines, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, South Korea, Thailand, Turkey, and Ukraine. Such new participants will need to be in a position where they can monitor and verify virus incidents. People who develop anti-virus products are best suited. People who represent one or more anti-virus products (agents) and provide localized support may also be qualified if they actually verify the viruses or forward samples to developers. If you qualify, please send your name, country, organization, product name, and references (preferably from other professionals in the industry.) Please send the information to info@wildlist.org. ============================================================================ The list is collated by board members of the WildList Organization International, which is solely responsible for its contents.
