So, What was you worst computer virus you've had so far.

I can't really name one specific one for me. I've had many.I have a PC...
Edit: I realized I posted this in the wrong board. So if someone could move it to computer chat, please do.

Toribash.It inffected both me and my computer.We are both obssessed with it .

I had a Trojan virus. I am not actually sure what it was exactly called but I can tell you what happen when I got it.

The Trojan ate up my files and deleted some of my desktop icon. The very next day, things got worse, the virus infected 2 more files :|. From there, I knew that I am "fucked." I had Windows Defender to scan all my files but only to find that the Trojan was unable to detect.
The next thing I know, I had a fake anti-virus program running automatically. It made me defenseless, it blocked every .exe I click on. I had no choice but to reformat it.

I bought an antivirus that was a virus.


Now I use Avast, and I'm glad

None so far. I've been using macs my whole life.

Antivirus programs, are basically viruses, just good ones.

I have had no viruses.

When I had a short and sudden adiction to online games.

I had to use so,so many defragmenters.

i made a virus does that count?

I'll move this thread to Computer Chat as Katzen requested.

Also, to contribute to the conversation, the first noticeable virus I had was called "aprotectedpaysite.com."
Y'know, the usual fake virus scanner that installs itself on your computer and tells you that you're highly infected, then prompts you to purchase phony anti virus software.

I fell for that once as well. though it was long ago and since then have been very careful
