2005年7月26日 · Win95/CIH is a family of parasitic viruses that targets certain versions of Microsoft Windows. The virus infects certain types of executable files. Depending on the variant, on certain dates the virus overwrites the boot disk with random data and can also overwrite the Flash BIOS with random data.

The CIH virus, also known as Chernobyl or Spacefiller, was first discovered in 1998 June in Taiwan. According to the Taipei authorities, Chen Ing-hau wrote the CIH virus. The name of the virus derived from his initials. It did most of its damage within a few months of Explorezip and Melissa 's appearance.

2023年2月24日 · CIH, also known as Chernobyl or Spacefiller, is a computer virus that first emerged in 1998, created by Chen Ing-hau, a student at Tatung University in Taiwan. The virus is highly destructive to vulnerable systems, overwriting critical information on infected system drives and, in some cases, destroying the system BIOS.

2004年6月25日 · The CIH virus attempts to ERASE the writable FLASH BIOS of infected PC's, and also overwrites the first 2,048 sectors (1,048,576 bytes) of all of the system's available non-removable writable disk drives! While this behavior places the CIH virus among the nastiest of all viruses, the damage is more recoverable than at first appears:

The Chernobyl virus is a computer virus with a potentially devastating payload that destroys all computer data when an infected file is executed. Since many files are executed during computer use, the virus is able to spread quickly and infect those files.

The CIH virus infects Windows 95 and 98 executable files (EXE files). After an infected EXE is executed, the virus will stay in memory and will infect other programs as they are accessed.
