Posted by KaGez on 19:58:00 08-20-2002
I locked it, since we are no virus creating community. There are such communities out there, so please refer to them if you want to program viruses

KaGez, just because you don't like a post/thread, you can't just delete it or lock it. Of course you're right when you say we're no virus creating community, and that post was the lamest thing I've seen for a long time, but please don't use your operator status this much

lol @ fsvara
OK, first _nobody_ cares about the forum and them I'm told that I abuse my rights, just because I'm the only one caring about it. Thank you! OK, you didn't say it in direct, but it actually was what you wanted to say, or not?

Anti-Virus program in VB would not be an easy task, or any language for the matter.

depends on how you write it... you could write it so that you are able to use the data of other programs, like Norton Anti-Virus data or something

I'm talking about executables and all the types of compressed files and monitoring file downloads.

hmmm...
compressed files:
decompress them in some tmp directory and check the files.
downloads:
just check all input that goes through the device.

Well, you have to know how each file was compressed. tarballs, gzips, zips, cabs, and I have seen several others. I'm just saying it would be a very time consuming thing to do.

you ever heard of a file header?
There everything is described in

Of course I have. To me writing an anti-virus program seems like a huge undertaking.

it may be much code, but basically you only check for patterns inside a file...

this post has got me wanting to make a "mini" virus scanner
if i do i will probably download some files i know are infected with whatever virus then get info about that virus from somewhere like mcafee.com for testing. then i will probably make the anti virus program read from several files
a file containing registry entries that the virii create
a file containing lists of files the virii create
a file containing virii code or whatever to compare with .exe files
then just do checks or whatever for each of those things. if i can get it to detect the virii i download to test it with then woohoo
