    Hello,
    I'm neither a programmer nor a hacker, just someone who remembers some batch command and undocumented msdos features.
    I made a batch file containing one line then converted to a COM file. With a certain tool I could also convert this COM to an EXE to scramble things a little more. Its purpose is to fully ERASE the drive C without prompting the user ! It's very easy to do, believe me so I won't post this command line here.
    I ran it to virustotal :

    Only kav and mcafee saw it :'(

    Hi,
    Well today there's no reason to have heuristic for BAT malware. BAT malware most likely will not spread too much.

    ...and there is no need for a smallpox vaccine. But if some strain of smallpox somehow escaped from an evil doctor's laboratory, WATCH OUT!!!!

    "Well today there's no reason to have heuristic for BAT malware"
    It can be easily converted to a COM or EXE file with the bat2exe and com2exe.
    A *beginner* can make this one line .bat file in a few seconds.
    "no need for a smallpox vaccine" And this is the way you call a trojan which can erase a hard drive at once :mad:
    It's old but can still be found (I suppose) over internet.
    This not a valid answer guys.
    Do you want me to write here this so easy command line which can erase a hard drive ?

    More info :

    Spyware Information: Trojan.BAT.FormatC.b

    This application is designed to harm your computer and devices attached to it. These types of applications are called nukers in the hacker community. They often use advanced techniques to disable your computer, like overwriting special segments of your hard drive which cause the drive to malfunction completely, destroying all its data and rendering it useless in the future. The goal of this type of application is to completely destroy the computer it infects. These are some of the most dangerous of all malicious software.

    Hi Fidelius,
    Just send all the undetected samples to samples AT eset.com and include as much information as you have with a link to this thread.
    Eset will then look at it as per here.

    Cheers :)

    I would probably be using KAV right now if it didn't consistently corrupt my filesystem. I wasn't the only one. KL didn't even bother to acknowledge the issue.

    You can't format active NTFS partitions in these days. And since C: is usually active one it just won't be formatted. So, prety much useless thing.
    .com files also don't work under Win9x... Besides, such "data destructon" is not interesting to anyone really. They prefer to steal it over destroying it in these days...

    Fidelius: Thanks for officially joining the ranks of malware authors and script kids. You are one more user that has not understood why creating new malware to test AVs is idiocy.

    You misunderstood me.

    I was saying that your homemade trojan was the smallpox. By discounting the possibility of smallpox reappearing (such as ignoring old viruses), one may leave himself wide open to damage, should it ever reappear.
