. Lucas is a simple DOS virus that appears to be parodying Lucasfilms and the Star Wars movies in general. It is a direct-action infector of all .COM files excluding COMMAND.COM in the directory it is run from. Once all .COM files are infected it then immediately displays its payload.
Payload: After completing infection of all .COM files in the run directory, it displays a graphic parodying the Lucasfilms/Lucasarts logo except this one says "Lucas Labs" and also shows a marquee at the bottom reading:
"It is a time of Civil War. Using fear and intimidation, the Empire seeks to impose a New Order on the galaxy. Only the Rebel Alliance stands in the way of their evil plans. Not yet willing to confront the Empire directly, the Rebels are marshalling their forces in secrecy. Even now a group of their prized Calamari Cruisers is being intercepted by a squadron of Imperial Star Destroyers. The Rebel Fleet is outnumbered but, they have a surprise... the X-Wing Starfighter!"
After the marquee finishes scrolling the payload ends and the original program will run. You can break out of the payload using Ctrl-Break however this will prevent the intended program from loading. Also the marquee is dependent on CPU clock speed; the slower/faster the CPU is the faster/slower the marquee is thus making it take a while to run through or run through quick.
