Final Word on the "Happy99" VIRUS...
Here's everything you need to know
about the "Happy99" Virus (or 'Worm').
Please, take any other posts about
it private-- it is illegal to post them
to the list...
From our
rules...:
"05. ----------snip----------
Anyone who posts a virus
warning to the list will be banned permanently
without warning."
This
post contains:
1. How to check if you have been "infected".
2.
How to fix it.
3. How to find out who else you may have
infected.
*******How to remove Happy99.exe 'Worm' Virus
*******
You can remove this Trojan manually from your computer.
To do
that, first check the WINDOWS\SYSTEM folder for the presence of
these
files.
1. SKA.EXE
2. SKA.DLL
3. WSOCK32.SKA
If you
find these files then you have been attacked by the Happy99 Trojan.
To remove
this Trojan do the following:
1. Delete SKA.EXE, SKA.DLL and
WSOCK32.DLL
2. Rename WSOCK32.SKA as WSOCK32.DLL
Make sure that you
have WSOCK32.SKA file before deleting WSOCK32.DLL and
ensure that you have
renamed this file properly. You may have to close your
Browser, Email
software, etc. to delete and rename the DLL files.
(Note: If you have
Internet Explorer integrated Windows,
you may have to do it in ms-dos
mode):
1. Shut down windows with the RESTART IN MS-DOS MODE
option.
2. At the prompt type the bold text.
C:\WINDOWS>cd
system
3. Next prompt and command:
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM>del
wsock32.dll
4. And finally:
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM>ren wsock32.ska
wsock32.dll
Then restart your computer.
Open the file
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\liste.ska in your NOTEPAD to see a list of
who you may have
infected with the Happy99 worm virus.)

Cleaning Under The Hood
Hello to all:
I have heard many things
about being really careful when cleaning the
engine, relative to the timing
belt. The dealer wants $35 to provide
this service. I inquired
with one mechanic as to what exactly they do
that is so unique for this
fee. He indicated it was a "special
chemical." Would anyone know
what I could use to clean under the hood,
without creating problems now or in
the future?
Thanks, and
regards,
Scott

Team3S: VR-4 Drivetrain...
Would it be possible to stick the VR-4 Engine
and Drivetrain into a
Mitsubishi Mini-van. The reason I ask is that a
friend of mine owned a
93 VR-4, he totalled it. The engine and
Drivetrain is intact, and the
insurance only wants $800 to keep the
car. His brother in law has 92'
Mitsu. Expo Minivan. I think its
AWD. Same engine as the SL or base.
He blew the engine and is
completely overjoyed at the concept of the
conversion, especially since the
new engine is $2k, and the salvage GT
is $800. What do you guys
think. Will it work? If anyone wants this
VR'4 lemme know.
The entire, and I mean entire extrerior is trashed.
Apparently he parked
under the edge of a roof and where construction was
taking place, and buch of
metal crap rolled off the roof onto the GT,
and destroyed almost every single
body panel, all the windows, and
ruined the back seat, and door
panels. Isn't funny all the weird ways
people wreck their
cars?

I don't know specifics, but I'd heard
that before about "special" (non-H20)
engine cleaners being safe. I've
also heard a number of horror stories
about steam cleaning our
engines-- seems that the steam gets into a number
of our sub-systems
and trashes them pretty thoroughly. If the delivery
system for your
dealer's "special chemical" is steam, DON'T do it.

AVC-R learning
Sunday I'm going to the dragstrip with the rest of
Minnesota 3/S. Tomorrow
I plan on installing the Super AVC-R.
I've re-read older posts and have no
doubt the install will go fine. I
guess there are two points that stand out
from previous posts - Don't quit
halfway, or it won't work, and don't mount
the solenoid on the
firewall.
My question has to do with the learning. I'm not sure of
the best way
fastest way to let the BC learn. It seems you do a few
runs in different
gears, is that it? What gears? I will want to
go slow and safe to begin
with. After that, is it advisable to
disconnect things to "erase" the
memory, and then let it learn under higher
boost conditions, or will the BC
adjust as I apply the
leadfoot??
Thanks for any help!

Subject: RE: Team3S:
AVC-R learning
Set the boost to 1.0. Set the BADC to around
66-68. Go for a romp. These
should be full throttle runs revving
out as far as you can. You want to
build as much boost as possible and
hold it for as long as possible. Get
going in 1st gear and shift to 2nd
around 3500-4000 then throttle to the
floor through 2nd and 3rd. If the
controller doesn't learn the boost will
not stabilize. If the BADC is
too low you may not achieve your desired
boost. If that happens
increase the BADC by 4% or so and repeat. If you
overshoot then reduce
the BADC and repeat the runs. Keep doing this until
it learns.
Shouldn't take long. Once you get the hang of it you can
retrain it in
one run.
In the rare case that IDC exceeds 90% during learning the AVC-R
won't learn.
In this case reduce the boost a little bit and try
again.
Have fun.

Anyone have any pointers on how to best install

I bought it used and got no directions. I
have a K&N FIPK installed,
otherwise pretty much stock under the
hood. I have the hard pipe that comes
with the BOV, but if I use it
won't it interfere with my 6sp tranny?

I think it is the old one you
are speaking about (the same I have). If so then
the hard pipe is not
compatible and you cannot mount it (as you already found
out). One chance is
that you cut the top part of the pipe where the BOV sits on
and use a shorter
rubber hose from the y-pipe to connect them together. The BOV
will then sit
closely to the battery (like the most others). The other way would
be to find
an exact flange that fits the BOV but this is not that easy and leaks
may
occur.
Hope this helps a little,

Team3S: Basic brake upgrade
Recently I had my car on a track on a club
day & after 20-30 fairly
heavy laps my brakes gave up & cooked the
rotors, pads & fluid.....very
expensive day.
I've machined the rotors
& replaced the pads with stock pads ( I had to
get the car back on the
road fairly quick so I didnt have time to work
out what to upgrade to ) &
the brakes are now fine.
My question is , can I just use high performance
pads & fluid with out
having to buy better rotors for "occasional" track
days? Has anybody had
experiences with using upgraded pads & fluids on
tracks with the
standard rotors? I realise brake fad will be an issue with
standard
rotors which doesnt worry me that much, I really just want to be
able to
go out on the track once in a while , have a bit of a blast , &
not have
to get the whole braking system overhauled when I'm
finished.
Thanks
