Yes, and I'm pretty sure that's illegal.

Yes, it is possible.

No, it's not smart, nor nice, nor friendly, nor legal.

Epic siggy there, BiggAdd.

Don't ever, ever create a virus, it ruins the security of a computer.

I have nothing against viruses!

Physical, not dangerous viruses, that is .

Seriously, though. Computer viruses just destroy for others, and that is not good at all.

There so far has not been one single physical virus discovered that does anything useful.

What a waste.

What I meant was that all they can do is to give you an cold or something. So sure, it is an waste, but nothing I really care about.

Yes.

He is clearly planning to make the virus in DB, then port it to java and hack the intertubes!

GET HIM!

That was why I noted that the viruses in question where not dangerous at all . But, well, ok, I confess. It was an joke.

Ah! This is what the compiler compiler was needed for! So he can write a valentine's virus in Dork Basic (To quote Cash slightly there)

And there you have it...

The last loose ends of Aluseus' saga of Noobness poisoning the forums have been tied!

That can only mean...

Bannage.

Is that a subtle hint that we should be killing more people with our AK-47's?

Aluseus you are a scroat! Why would anyone want to make a virus, all it does is harm other people's computers, you don't gain anything.
You're probably going to be a rapist when you're older.

No, it means we have more important things to worry about than terrorists

I don't think making a virus is a very good idea Unless it's a fake virus meaning designed to look real but really just a fake which is legal (but only do this to your friends not to metion annoying) I made one before other wise I would just make some thing else that says happy valentines and post it on the geek board...

Tip Of The Day!:Have you tried every thing in dbc to make your game faster but does it still lag? Switch to dbp to gain that extra speed you lack.

err, you know, real viruses can hurt you a hell of a lot more than a computer virus.

Yup, true story. http://searchwindowssecurity.techtarget.com/tip/0,289483,sid45_gci998052,00.html

I'm pretty sure aluseus isn't trying to make one, more like bringing up the topic in a very unorthodox way.

1 - I am not planning to make one
2 - I don't have one, update your virus protectors, I won't care.

So you are saying that if I made a vorus (in theory) that said happy valentine's day to everybody that it could reach that would be illegal? whatever.
