Create a Computer Virus in 20 seconds
People just don't believe you when you say that a virus can be created in less than 20 seconds. But of course they do. They are not virus writers or hackers or programmers. How could they believe in such a theory?
Here i am to give you information on how to create a virus yourself. I am by no means, a creator of this virus that i'm going to show you; this piece of virus is actually from Eicar, a legitimate organization aiming to educate users in PC security. My task is to inform you.
Virus are created through pieces of codes known as programming languages (those C++ stuffs). Here is one example of a virus code:
X5O!P%@AP[4\PZX54(P^)7CC)7}$EICAR-STANDA RD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE!$H+H*
This piece of code is provided by Eicar, and its purpose is for you to test your antivirus to see whether it's real-time are good or not. To officially make this piece of code a virus code, remove the spacing between the word"STANDA RD" on the code above.
Here's how to create the virus:
1. Before you continue, it is better that your antivirus supports REAL-TIME protection. I have warned you and thus, NOT RESPONSIBLE for any damage the virus code inflict on your PC!
2. On your desktop, right-click.
3. Select "New" and then "Text Document"
4. Copy & paste the virus code i gave you above into the text document. Make sure that there are NO SPACING between the codes, and that you didn't add anything other than the code itself.
5. Save the text document somewhere on the desktop.
6. Here's a catch:
A SUPER SENSITIVE antivirus will detect the file as a virus IMMEDIATELY after you save the file. Congratulations, because you own an antivirus with the best real-time protection!!!
An EFFICIENTLY SENSITIVE antivirus will detect the file as a virus when you click on the file, or moments after the file was saved. Congratulations, because you own an antivirus with real-time protection which is both effective and efficient, though perhaps, not the best yet.
A SUFFICIENTLY SENSITIVE antivirus will detect the file as a virus when you attempt to run the file, either on your host PC or remotely through other PCs. I'll congratulate you too, because this is the minimal benchmark for an antivirus with real-time protection.
A MEDIOCRE antivirus will not detect the file as a virus no matter how long you wait for a response; it will detect it as a virus only when you run a manual scan. Either your antivirus does not support real-time protection, or that your antivirus's real-time protection is SERIOUSLY flawed.
A USELESS antivirus will NOT detect the file as a virus in real-time, NOR detect is as a virus even when you run a manual scan. I don't know where in Merlin's Beard do you get this kind of antivirus but one thing for sure: please UNINSTALL IT and FIND A NEW ONE! You can get many free antivirus such as Avast! and Avira; both software a hundred times better than the crap you're using!
Basically, there are two types of antivirus. One operates with no real-time protection; the others with real-time protection. REAL TIME PROTECTION HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOUR ANTIVIRUS DETECTION BEING SIGNATURE-BASED OR HEURISTIC BASED. The code's purpose is to test the quality of your antivirus's real-time protection, not on how good your antivirus's detection rate are.
Conclusion: Can you believe that it only takes a few text to consider a code a virus? Just a few text and character, and your computer is infected!!!
YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT!!!!
