The original Friday 13th COM virus first appeared in South Africa in 1987. Unlike the Jerusalem (Friday the 13th) viruses, it is not memory resident, nor does it hook any interrupts. This virus only infects .COM files, but not COMMAND.COM. On each execution of an infected file, the virus looks for two other .COM files on the C: drive and one on the A: drive, if found they are infected. This virus is extremely fast, and the only indication of propagation occurring is the access light being on for the A: drive, if the current default drive is C:. The virus will only infect a .COM file once. The files, after infection, must be less than 64K in length. On every Friday the 13th, if the host program is executed, it is deleted.
