Pattel's Virus

This insidious virus is a Doppleganger that weakens one type of ICE on the target system. The 'runner chooses a specific type (Data Wall, Code Gate, Anti-system, Anti-demon, Anti-personnel, Anti-program, Monitor) when the virus is installed. Any program the target runs that has the chosen characteristic has its Strength reduced by 1. Multi-function programs containing the chosen characteristic are weakened, too (for instance, targeting the Anti-personnel function weakens Anti-personnel data walls as well as dedicated Anti-personnel programs).
