lets make a virus

it would be not very nice,but just to remind you,antivirus programs exist.

it would be awesome
no shit :0
one that is not recognised and also not dangerous and you have to allow a few things so your antivirus is oke with the virus

In short: ###NOOOOO

Oh look! I made a rainbow for you.

why are you against it
because it is clearly not a good idea …
but why
then we finally learn the real shit
no?

btw how do you use colors :D

And then you find out you don’t know how to get rid of the virus and you are stuck with a computer that locks up every now and then. Oh, not to forget that the person that infected you was kind of a dick and infected you with a bit more than the challenge virus.

Yeah… not going to happen. ;)

If you want to learn “the real shit”, download some real viruses and analyse them. Perhaps set up a VM and play around in there. Perhaps .com viruses could be an easy start. However, I have the feeling you aren’t really ready for “the real shit”.

oke you are right :D
I tought there were no assholes around here but i can be wrong :)
of course i am not ready to this real shit :)
i am 5 days here btw :D before this i was one of them who tought you could learn how to hack with just watch a tutorial from 10 minutes on youtube :D :D :D
so actually what i am saying is i am a noob in hacking
but when i am i shure will create a virtual environment to experiment with viruses :D
thanks
time to close?

tbh, hackquest had a level like this and it was pretty awesome, but really it takes a lot of thought to code a challenge like this without it running wild.
Regardless, I still vote no :)

Feel free to close.

ow i see
what is hackquest

you convinced me all the answer is no :)

HackQuest is a now unfortunately dead challenge site due to a disk error. No matter :)

thats a pitty
is your site harder or easier than thisone?

That’s not really for me to say :)

hahaha basicly what you saying is try and see :)
well i will

@andrewtx I’m just saying I think it would be unfair for me to determine as I would be biased :)

yes thats true :)

Meh! I wouldn’t like to be locked out off my computer! :/
I just don’t get how this was gonna work.

perhaps with a shutoff function so you can search as long as you want
and when you know you can try again for like two days

IIRC, the one on hackquest had a lot of disclaimers and I personally solved it without even running the virus, just reversed it.
The issue isnt being infected - virii can be removed easily enough, its more the fact that if it HAS to be run for the challenge to be solved, it would need to cater for windows, linux, mac, solaris, android, etc

Just not practical :)

Of course - VM will solve all the problems. I still vote no however :)

i see that is a big issue

it is a pitty perhaps next time my weird fantasies will become real :D
time to close down
