Whats the Worst Virus You've Had?

I've never had anything that bad but my friend had some nasty Smitfraud and some other stuff that killed his computer.

I had the Permission Research crud on my system. It crashed me to the point where I couldnot open my Control Panel, any EXE program ect, and I had to do multiple system restores just to be able to get into any programs to scan my system and remove the bugs.

that sucks, the worse i've had which was in 2000 i think was the ILOVEYOU bug, that sucked.

I haven't had a problem since I ditched Windows ME (and we all know what an abortion that was). As long as you use Avast Anti-virus with Spybot S&D and keep them up to date, then you should have next to no issues. Also, keep away from unethical/illegal sites, they're always full of malware.

hehe, Windows ME, what did that stand for again? Wasn't it Miscrosoft Experiment? ;)

Millenium Edition if you must know, and I actually knew one of the guys that caused microsoft so much trouble. Lost touch with him now but I am rather glad I don't know him anymore. That guy cause S.A. a lot of problems. Even planted a virus that in one of our national banks that made all their money dissapear for a weekend a few years ago.

I had a lovely little virus we picked up from a picture in a forum. Essentially it copied every single file on the computer and doubled it with the copy having a .vbs extension... We then tried to access the pc over the network to backup important files and the same thing happened to the second computer... 2 clean installs later everything is fine again... :) (Windows ME funnily enough)
