A computer virus is a malware program that, when executed, replicates by inserting copies of itself (possibly modified) into other computer programs, data files, or the boot sector of the hard drive; when this replication succeeds, the affected areas are then said to be "infected".

You can also make simple computer virus which is too easy. In this article I will teach you how to make simple computer virus.

Make New folder using command prompt

First of all you have to make New Folder using command prompt i.e MS DOS or you can say by bat file. It needs simple syntax.

How To Make New Folder Using Command Prompt

Steps of making New Folder by MS DOS are:
1:Open Note Pad i.e By right click on desktop, go to New Click on Text document
2: Syntax of making folder or directory is "Mkdir (location) (Name)
E.g: If you want to make folder in drive D the command will be

"Mkdiv D:\Newfolder"

(Note: Inverted commas are not the part of command)
3:Save that file in Bat format. i.e .Bat
4:Run that bat file and see the location you given to command new folder would be there.

Use that Bat file as Virus

Now you are going to make virus through this command. Follow the above procedure to make new folder but now you have to make a large number of folders i.e
Mkdiv D:\1
Mkdiv D:\2
Mkdiv D:\3
Mkdiv D:\4
Mkdiv D:\5
Mkdiv D:\6
Mkdiv D:\7
Mkdiv D:\8
Mkdiv D:\9
Mkdiv D:\10
and so on as large as you want to make in the victims computer. Now save that file as Bat and send that file to victims computer and ask him to run. When he will run that file large number of folders will be created. i.e undesirable change in his computer would be made and he you will have made the the virus.
This is very simple technique and you can use that among your friends, and can have fun.
