A few comments:
   - since the boot part of the ghost virus does not spread,
     it can not properly be called a virus, so I do not think it should be
     included.

   - The Pentagon virus does not work. Why include it ?

   - Why not include Agiplan, Oropax, Missouri, Macho and Nichols ?

   - Do-nothing Remains resident

   - 1168/1280 do not use self-encryption.

Apart from this it's a good list.
