Have you heard of MeltingScreen.exe worm?

I already said something about it! >.<
The screen melts and the file replaces itself with every other item on the Hard Disk, yes?

It swaps files (opening paint might open regedit, etc), changes all EXE icons to a snowflake, and of course melts.

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

OMG I love you (for programming that stuff XD or finding it)

As a rookie IT Specialist, this is heaven ;-;
I wish I could finally leave the small LOGO and start learning the C++ already XDDD
I feel special now because someone actually thought my script was useful.
C++ isn't as hard as it looks.
// Hello World

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
cout << "Hello World!";
return 0;

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.

Once,I tricked my friends into thinking it was something they liked.
They said they wanted a game,so I made something in my notepad.
I put in a Shutdown PC script.
I thought about what to name it as,then I got it.
I named it Minecraft.vbs,but disquised it as an EXE file.
Then I saved it,I changed the icon to the Minecraft icon.
I sent it to my friends,and when they opened it they got
“The system is shutting down.”
“Please save all of your work.
”Any unsaved work will be lost,"

This one time I just Googled something (I forgot what it was), clicked a link that looked official, but then it installed some fake antivirus on my computer SUPER fast, without my consent, that claimed I had a bunch of viruses and to activate the program to remove them.

Like, whoa. How does it do that?

do what makes you happy.
'cause at the end, who's there?
you.

Ever hear of the Stuxnet or Flame viruses? They were probably developed by the IDF, though they'd never admit it. But who else would create a worm that steals sensitive military information from every country in the Middle East except for one? Or one that destroys Iran's nuclear reactors? (I probably shouldn't go that way…)
That's a heck of a lot of code though.

Guys, there is a virus called delta portal homes site. I have it. I doesn't do anything, as far as I can see, but it is always your homepage, even if you try to reset it. Very pesky. There are dangerous links on it.

Have you tried accessing the source files of the virus? Or can you possibly terminate the process in Task Manager?
