Create A Fake VIRUS

How Do I Create A Fake VIRUS?

This tutorial will help a user to create a fake virus………which will force the system to restart or shutdown after a specific period of time……

Warning: Use it at your own risk. I'll not be responsible for any kind of damage/problem in your system.

Well….. We all are aware of this program called SHUTDOWN.EXE which allows us to easily create icons to shutdown or restart our computer.

Shutdown [{-l|-s|-r|-a}] [-f] [-m [\\ComputerName]] [-t xx] [-c "message"] [-d[u][p]xx:yy]

Parameters
-l - Logs off the current user, this is also the defualt. -m ComputerName takes
precedence.
-s - Shuts down the local computer.
-r - Reboots after shutdown.
-a - Aborts shutdown. Ignores other parameters, except -l and ComputerName.
You can only use -a during the time-out period.
-f - Forces running applications to close.
-m [\\ComputerName] - Specifies the computer that you want to shut down.
-t xx - Sets the timer for system shutdown in xx seconds. The default is 20
seconds.
-c "message" - Specifies a message to be displayed in the Message area of the
System Shutdown window. You can use a maximum of 127 characters. You must enclose the message in quotation marks.

We use this handy shortcut in Creating a Shutdown/Reboot Icon.
But this time It will be used for creating a virus……….

• Restart Your PC to see the Effects.

Method Two

• Click Start > Run.

• Type regedit and press Enter after Run Window emerges.

• Go To

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Run

Note
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
This hive contains information about the computer itself, as well as about the operating system. It includes specific details about all hardware, including keyboard, printer ports, storage—the entire hardware setup. In addition, it has information about security, installed software, system startup, drivers, services, and the machine's specific XP configuration.

• Click on Edit Menu > New > Expanded string value

Note
Expanded string value data type contains variables that Windows uses to point to the location of files. For example, to point to the location of the Luna theme file, the expanded string value in the Registry is %SystemRoot%\resources\Themes\Luna.theme.

• Name the String value as “Shell32”.

• Now, Double click on it to and Set its value as

%windir%\system32\shutdown.exe -s -t 300 -c "Your Computer is infected with virus @Ronak Agrawal"

Restart your PC to see the effects……….

Old Stuff!

[anand1]

Ya Good old one i have somewhere the sam trick. Anyways good work.
There are also many softwares which do the same as this trick.

[[xubz]]

Offtopic: Um.. Virus? According to wikipedia "a computer virus is a computer program that can copy itself and infect a computer without permission or knowledge of the user. The original virus may modify the copies or the copies may modify themselves"

So well, There is a obvious difference between A Virus, Trojan, Malicious Scripts/Softwares and Spywares.


Intopic: Nice Trick BTW, Will be useful when a friend annoys you.

[Ron]

thnks Guys..........

This tut is useful when a user do not know about much about comp

For an Ex:

Instead of 300 ........If i enter 00
%windir%\system32\shutdown.exe -s -t 00 -c "Your Computer is infected with virus @Ronak Agrawal"

The comp will shutdown just after the logon screen......................

How will you make real virus...???

[Kiran.dks]

Here is a harmless virus which a good antivirus should detect!

Just right-click & select "Save target as". If a good antivirus is active, it should give warning, atleast when saving the file on desktop.

ya it gives me waning...

Actually I was thinking on the same lines and was thinking of posting a similar tutorial.But mine is a little simpler and uses batch file programming

Step 1 Open notepad and write shutdown.exe -s -t 5 here 5 is the time in seconds after which the computer will shutdown.Now save the above file as
shutdown.bat in your desired location.

Step 2 Go to Start>Run and type edit c:\autoexec.bat .A dos like window will appear and here write CALL c:\shutdown.bat(this is in the case when you save the file in step 1 at this location).

Now as you all know autoexec.bat runs during every startup and hence the desired computer will shutdown itself after every 5 seconds of shutdown.bat being executed.
