PS-MPC (the Phalcon Skism Mass Produced Code Generator) is a virus construction kit from the early 1990s that generated thousands of simple file infecting viruses from a common engine. Detections under this name indicate legacy malware rather than a modern threat, and the family holds historical interest for how it industrialized virus writing.
