>ergo, cmos viruses are a myth...
Cogito ergo sum, Cmos viruses - myth from Mcaffe and others business shark,
while all off you afraid viruses, Mcaffe - make the great businnes.
But some viruses can store some key word in Cmos, its really, especially in
some
types of CMOS where present some reserved space for 1-4 bytes.But store
there
 executables code - its something new in virusmaking!
I had newer seen any viruses less then 143 byte lenght, but for cmos - 143
byte -very
big size. But that "problem" has other side, viruses with "mythycal"
capabalites write
code to cmos is very hardware setntensive :) and can work only on some
specifical types of computers!
