Computer Viruses
I remember trying to make a file that would duplicate itself. After a mishap of accidentally trying to copy it, my external hard drive filled up in about five minutes and my computer crashed.
RIP Western Digital 1TB.

I know how to access student's files from my school's desktop computers or from the Wi-Fi network (even on my iPad). I could do some evil stuff with batch or VBA scripts, but I'm not that evil.

I made a virus in batch once that copies itself to USB drives (with a autorun file) and your startup folder. It basically runs the Sysinternals BSOD screensaver so it looks like the computer crashed.
I know how to make a bluscreen batch file. Copy and paste code in notepad (If you have windows):
@echo off
echo ^<html^>^<head^>^<title^>BSOD^
</title^> > bsod.hta
echo. >> bsod.hta
echo ^<hta:application id=“oBVC” >> bsod.hta

echo maximizebutton=“no” >> bsod.hta
echo minimizebutton=“no” >> bsod.hta
echo sysmenu=“no” >> bsod.hta

echo windowstate=“maximize”/^> >> bsod.hta

echo ^</head^>^<body bgcolor=“#000088” scroll=“no”^> >> bsod.hta
echo ^<font face=“Lucida Console” size=“4” color=“#FFFFFF”^> >> bsod.hta

echo. >> bsod.hta
echo ^<p^>If problems continue, disable or remove any newly installed hardware or software. Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing.

del /s /f /q “bsod.hta” > nul
Save it as bluescreen.bat
save it to your desktop
open it, and YaY!
This batch file can be used as a prank to your friends.

Yeah, I used to watch danooct1, though his videos seem all the same:
“…1 eighth chance…” “…attacks all .exe and .com files…”

GAH, THAT SOUNDS SO INFECTIOUS… I made a virus in batch once that copies itself to USB drives (with a autorun file) and your startup folder. It basically runs the Sysinternals BSOD screensaver so it looks like the computer crashed.

Really? Oh, and NEVER USE MCAFEE!
My old laptop was second hand, and when we bought it, it had 10 viruses after using McAfee.
Plus McAfee has a bad history.
My grandmom has McAfee, and she'd DEFINITELY tell us if her computer got infected.

My computer has a virus where the virus keeps copying itself on the hard disk. I can't remember what was called, but it is on danooct1's channel.

I once caught the Iminent virus after downloading Windows Movie Maker. It is a browser hijacker. As the name implies it replaces your browser with its own and redirects you to another site regardless of what you put in.
It is a particularly malicious virus that took a while to get rid of, but I did it all by myself. I managed to get Malwarebytes and remove it for good.
The moral of the story is, never download things for free on the Internet. If it asks you if you want to download even though there could be malicious software. ALWAYS click no.

Almost every time Windows BSODs, it's because of hardware failure (the other times are from internal memory leaks, but most software suffers from that). I'm jealous of your Mac though, can't develop for OSX without OSX xD That's why I'm getting a Mac for school. I don't like BSODs. BTW I have a PC.

(and being a girl doesn't make your mac any more mac-y)

One common way people hide viruses is to give other people fake warnings that say ‘their flash player is outdated’.

I wouldn't think that there would be a Virus thread, but I did plan on making a false virus once, probably Techno for Windows 7 or something along those lines. Heh, virus… Lines…

I agree. Java is another way. I am getting Java updates every day it seems. One common way people hide viruses is to give other people fake warnings that say ‘their flash player is outdated’.

I made a FAKE Python Virus that makes 100 files (or more as you please!) with AbG/q4gaevgrL#GVFdaewL#4tilyar;f23 as a content. (It's actually more random than that, but you get the idea)
