Thread: BullDog Secuirty Fake Anti-Virus

I've been seeing these people making a fake virus scanner in Vb. Java is soooo much more pro. So I took my shot at it. I need suggestions for future stuff. All things work 100% beside the Malware Scanner which I will soon work on.
Pix nd Such.

So your writing a fake virus scanner? For what purpose?

I see clients infected with this kind of thing on a daily basis. It's very annoying.

It's made to out do the people making fake anti viruses in Vb.
Vb is a stupid language.
I wanted to show people some real coding in a real language.
Hackforums banned the thread I had there because It was a fake program?
But of course it is.
It is made to be fake not for real use.
Hopefully I can keep this thread here >.>

If a hack forum banned your thread then you don't have much more of a chance here im afraid.

We are against illegitimate activities. If this is just for fun, then it may pass as OK but if you are planning on infecting people then there will be a problem.

This is once again just to show people a program that is better created in java than Vb. Mine is obviously inferior than the ones you will find on youtube.

That would be sick.

This is just to show people that a fake antivirus is better made in java than Vb. Youtube it if you don't get the concept. I do not provide a download for this because I want this to stay here. They thought the download contained a virus and that I was showing that fake antivirus could not pick it up 0_0 they did not understand the concept. There is no threat here. If anyone wants the source they can pm me. And all they will get is a netbeans project. Nothing virus related.

The sort of people that write these applications do so for illegitimate gains. You say it's no harm but these apps are 100% annoying and cause a lot of problems for people even though they are not "real".

I work for an IT company whos engineers are removing these types of malware on a daily basis. I do not condone them in any way. I'm not sure if im happy promoting this kind of application here.

There are plenty of other "hacking" forums that would be happy to host your source and application.

If the general feeling here is that this isn't good, I may remove the thread. Please don't take offense.

VB is meant and designed to be a scripting language, and as such has a different scope than that of Java. I don't think there's really anything VB can't do that Java can (other than a few specific cases, or varying implementations/names).

Adding an actual virus scanner would be good, though I'm not sure you'd be able to do this in pure Java since you'd need to scan the contents of the memory and not just the file system.

I get where your coming from but that's exactly why there is no download for this program.I'm getting bored with this development. You can lock this thread if you want.
