- batiudrami 7mo agoA classical virus, from the good old days. None of this botnet/bitcoin mining in the background nonsense.
- mghackerlady 7mo agoI've always wanted to make a virus like those of the olden days. I wouldn't do anything malicious with it, but maybe I would deploy it to a friends computer if it wasn't very destructive. What resources are there to learn about viruses?
- aerique 7mo agoOn the Atari ST we had a boot sector virus that inverted the mouse Y-axis after some random time. So annoying.
- creatonez 7mo agoNo one actually knows what the payload from basemetrika.ru contains, though. So it's possible it was originally intended to be more damaging. But no matter what it would have caught attention super fast, so there's probably an upper limit to how sophisticated it could have been.
