| interview with second part to hell/bcvg |
|
| where do you live? do you have hemp in your place? how's virus scene there in your area? |
|
| I live in a really small country in Austria I think, only 20% of the ppl in that country know anythink about computer viruses. And I'm sure, that there is no other virii writer. |
|
| where did you get the long handle of yours? and why second part to hell? |
|
| Maybe 2 years ago I began writing maleware. I used the name "McHit". Unfortanutally i spreat viruses that time. A year ago i stopped it and got more interesting of the virii technique. So I thougth, I have to change my name. I'm very interesting in "Black Metal"-music, so I thought, the name must include "Hell". I wrote a "maybe-name"-list. Than I ased my girlfried, and she said, that "Second Part To Hell" is the best. |
|
| when did you first encounter computer viruses? |
|
| I think in 1998 Dr Solomon found the virus "Tai-Pan.486.a". Since that time I was interesting in maleware. |
|
| what was your first virus? |
|
| My first maleware was "Trojan.Snooby". I made it in oktobre 2000. It was a silly bomber, that deletes C:\*.* and C:\Windows\*.*. |
|
| what made you decide to enter the virus scene? |
|
| Sorry, I don't know the time. |
|
| so you're the coder of the infamous bwg.. what inspired you to code the batch worm generator? |
|
| Writing a VCK is a big deal: for me, for other VXs and maybe for AVs. When I began to write the BWG, I hoped I can help newbes to learn from the codes. |
|
| when did the first version of bwg appeared? can you tell us the history of the bwg? |
|
| The first version was on March 15th, 2002. It was only a silly bat VCK with many bugs. But already 2 weeks and 4 versions later the BWG was a Massmailer and IRC infector VCK whithout any bug. I ever tried to kill every AV alarm. Meanwhile the BWG-worms are polymorph (not really good polymorphism but I try to improve it) with 21 kB code. And no worm is detect by KAV/AVP. |
|
| in future releases of the bwg, what features will we expect from it? |
|
| First I hope that I'm able to kill all virus alarms from AVs, if there would be one. Then I will improve the polymorphism. And I will add morpheus spreading and other stuff (hope i get the tutorial from VorteX ;-). I also hope that I find some new nice techiques (like harder deleting from the system or other things). So you see, there are many things on my to-do-list. |
|
| what will make you say, "i'm sick and tired of improving the batch worm generator.."? |
|
| I think, I will improve the BWG for long long time. Because of that, I don't think about it. |
|
| besides improving the batchworm generator, do you code your own viruses and worms? in what language? tell us somethin bout them. |
|
| Yes, I write simple viruses too. I wrote a WinREG-virus, a SYS-Trojan, a QuickBasic source infector. Currently I try to write a undetectable bat-virus (BAT.Snake.*). And I also write VBS-viruses and C++ maleware (unfortanutally I didn't have success with C++ yet). |
|
| you're a member of black cat virus group, right? how does the group help you in harnessing your skills? |
|
| I downloaded nearly everything about script-viriis/encryption. That helped me very much to understand virus techniques. And they also helped my BWG to became famous, I think. |
|
| will you later upgrade from batch to any higher language? |
|
| Yes I try to write C++ maleware and I'm going to learn Visual Basic this year. I have tried to learn ASM, without success. But I'm sure, I will try it ones more. |
|
| do you have an anti-virus software installed in your pc? why did you install that software? |
|
| Yes, I've installed KAV, but only for improve my BWG and add my viriis with the right name to my virus-database. |
|
| so what are your hobbies? what completes your day? |
|
| I like listen to music (Nirvana, Böhse Onkelz, Korn, Maschine Head, Marilyn Manson and so on) and meet friends (smoke, get drunken and do some shit things). |
|
| among all the coders in the virus scene, who do you respect the most? the least? |
|
| My favorit VXer is SnakeByte. I think, his NGVCK is the best virii kit in the world. I also respect all 29A members and Dark Avanger for beeing pionier of polymorphic viruses. And VorteX for his very very good technique-suggestions. |
|
| what can we expect from your future works? |
|
| I want write a VBS-VCK, but that means much work. And I want to write a metamorph script virus. But I don't know if it's possible. I' writing a very encryted batch virus (BAT.Snake.*), and I hope, KAV isn't able to detect it one day. I will also improve my BWG. |
|
| favourite malware of all time? why? |
|
| My favorit maleware are the Tequilla-virus, the first polymorph virus. Dark Avange's MtE: A genial virus mutanting engine in 1992. SnakeByte's NGVCK: I think, it's the best VCK nowadays. Babylonier-Virus: It was able to update itself. Benny's Winux: Windows AND Linux infector Mental Driller's MetaPHOR: One of the first metamorphic virus. |
|

|
| And via MSN Messenger: HellsKey@hotmail.com |
|
| anything to add? greets? flames? |
|
| Yeah, my greets go to all eBCVG member, to SnakeByte for progging help and to VorteX for his suggestions and bug reports for my programs. |
|
| thankie for the interview |
