I haven't really tried making software for OS's. I want to make a simple virus that ends the explorer bar task though. That'd be fun to play with. Note to self: don't download anything from nick. Lol

WHY WOULD YOU MAKE VIRUSES? i mean you are only starting to become one of the most hated people in the world... My dad's theory with the viruses is that the companies that write the code to break them also write the code to make the virus...it would be a good way to get money...

Actually yeah, lot's of virus protection companies(norton, mcafee, avg) secretly make Viruses. Why? So users will buy your product. However I don't think they make super serious virus' like Trojans and stuff.
Overall a genius business strategy

I heard AVG free does that a lot because a lot of community members said after they got it, they got tons of viruses and AVG free said only their paid version could renew it. I would like to look into that more

Yeah, but Colin was trying to say the companies that make the antivirus also make minor viruses, just so that you will buy their product.

I've coded a lot of stuff, I don't have any of it besides the Lifeless random winner program I posted in the Show Off section. I've coded calculators, random stuff, and over thirty flash game trainers.
