OK my question is what is a virus i mean i know what it is and what it does. But how does it come into exicetence (sp) soes someone just go into a text box and type in a program code or do they do something different. My computer knoledge (sp) isnt that great compared to alot of people on this site but since this is the internet and you cant trust anybody if you think that im going to try and create a virus just leave out parts that would help someone trying to make one. Info to my Question would be greatly apreciated.

You're correct, it's just a bunch of programed commands written in a text editor and then usually compiled.

thanks for the info

get a shareware compalier and get a book on the language u want to put it in. i sugest basic for a first timer. u could jump directly to somthingl like C++ but basic is simple and will help u understand programming better.

I suggest PERL or Python for your first language. Python in particular, www.python.org

Then, give Java a try.

What A virus usually does is alter settings, replicate, delete things, write things, and generally inconvinience the user.
