Heh. Working on a Thinkpad that is terribly infected and while trying to run MalwareBytes, the cmd window pops up with 18467.exe and the cursor starts playing pong. It was pretty awesome. :lol:

Huh, is it always the same <number.exe>, or does that randomize? I would assume it would randomize.

You are correct. It randomizes.

The world needs more viruses these days that make your cursor play Pong than keylog your online bank accounts. Though if this does malicious things in addition to the Pong that would still be classified as suck.

Someone ought to start a trend of harmless, fun viruses that are easy to fix! Promotes computer security while having fun for all!
