Finally I've seen Frisk's original poster (which I had missed before)
and hence the whole message
   KONIEC PROGRAMU WABIKEXE.EXE
meaning
   End of the WABIKEXE.EXE program

>From the name of the program ended thus, it's clear that this message is
Polish, as Slovac does normally not use the W. The name contains the
Polish word WABIK which means BAIT -- a natural name not for a virus,
but rather for a program offered to the virus to be infected.

Hence I conjecture, the specimen consists of a simple bait program
(written from a Polish person, and ending with the above character
string) that has been infected by the virus in question.

That's definitly my last word on this topic, I promise!
