Does anyone know of any notable *NIX viruses?

Turns out the iOS app shortcuts can be used to make somewhat malware (I say somewhat because you can’t really do that much malicious things with it)

Mirai, Flashback, XCodeGhost, Pegasus, Dendroid…

I'm sure there's some a couple of more well known ones that I've missed, especially for Mac OSX and Android

If you own a shop, think about joining the USS or SCA!

they're referring to unix and other unix-like or unix-based oses, such as linux, bsd, and apple darwin (macos)

True.

Back on topic, though, Lose/Lose (an art piece themed after Space Invaders that deletes your files if you shoot an alien) can sometimes delete its own files, making it a (theoretical) self-destructive game.

Yo! It's me, ChameleonGamer!

These fellas are my guards! They attack any nearby kumquats.

:) :: reporter sensing // He's Eduardo! He attacks all the evil kumquats headed for my sig, putting them in Kumquat Jail.
:o :: reporter operators // Her name's Jenny, she also attacks kumquats, but instead of jailing them, uses them for food.

// This is Kumquat Jail!
kumquat jail (johnny) (bob) (edward) (charles) :: operators

If you want to, consider dropping by my wacky little chess animation!

Or, maybe check on the defender eggs I'm keeping warm.

If you want to, you can give me an internet!

I've wanted to make a ‘living’ program that modifies it's own code. Hmm

Yup!

Paired with later generations of specifically trained AI, we're not far from a movie-like super computer virus that can naturally adapt.

hey quick question, my antivirus (PC Matic) keeps blocking a file called, “shieldvpn” specifically it was blocking, “upgrade.exe” within the shieldvpn folder, I have no idea how it got onto my computer, I managed to get it in the recycle bin but just to make sure, is shieldvpn malware or is it a false positive?

don't forget

by the way MagicCoder330 is hosting a social experiment, I'm curious to see where it goes, please comment on it I want to see what the next phase is

uh… I just reported a project for including a swear word but in typing the report I accidentally reported it as the wrong swear word… well excrement

I've not heard of either PC Matic nor Shieldvpn, so I don't know of their reputations. If you still have the EXE files you can upload them to VirusTotal to see if any other antivirus scanners detect it.

The likes of Ambulance, Casino, Techno, and Skynet brought a new level of notoriety to the world of computer viruses. And the Bumerang Windows Worm/Virus—well, that was a crafty piece of work, too. They all had their unique ways of spreading and causing mischief.

Danooct1, the YouTuber, really dives into the realm of these viruses, doesn't he? It's quite something to see someone exploring them and showing their impact without causing harm.

Flytech and Enderman are also worth checking out on YouTube. They have been covering computer viruses for years now

speaking of which, we need to support Enderman at the moment due to current situations, someone's false reporting his videos and they're getting taken down

People report videos about viruses on a virus showcase channel… how dumb

I think the most effective way to basically make a Windows computer unusable is to make a .bat file that opens itself, and then put it in the startup folder.
