Re: A85: Re: Assembly virus




Alright.  I just wondered if it could be done.  I'm not really 
interested in infecting people's calculators.  Thanks.  =)

I think most of us probably crash our calculators every day anyways :(.
Certainly you could write a virus.  I would think it would be more fun 
to
write one that just made all of the variables grow, little by little.  
Or
maybe it did nothing but spread itself across during file transfer.  
Once
you crash someone's calc, it would be harder to pass it on to the next
person.  Anyways, learn some assembly and you can then program your own
virus.  Good luck (but i don't really think writing most viruses 
requires
too many "mad skillz").
