The ‘Nick Knight’ Virus:
A deadly virus with many different names such as ‘Nicholas deBrabant’, ‘Nicholas Forester’, ‘Nick Parker’, ‘Nicholas Hammond’, ‘Nicholas Girard’ and ‘Nick Thomas’. This multitude of names has made this virus virtually impervious against all anti-virus programs because every time, it enters the computer with a different name. The virus settles itself inside the main memory of the infected computer and becomes active during the night. Its greatest danger is that it tries very hard to turn itself into an application. The side effects of the infection are the multitude of error messages the virus creates; apologizing on the user’s behalf each time s/he deletes a file or terminates an application. No known cure is yet found.
The ‘Natalie Lambert’
application:
This is not really a virus but a CPU occupying mutated application that forces the computer’s Central Processing System into overload. It has a built-in file that attaches itself to the ‘Recycle Bin’ and sorts out the files. There, the application opens each and every deleted file and examines its various properties such as size, type, attributes, and date of deletion. After completing its assessment, it reports the reason of deletion into a log file. If a computer that has this application installed on it gets infected with the ‘Nick Knight’ virus, the application turns into a more hazardous version of itself and will volunteer to aid the virus in its transformation into an application.
The ‘Lucien LaCroix’ virus:
Also called the ‘Luscious Lucius’ or the ‘Nunkies’ virus. It is the stealthiest virus of all. Its deadliest effect is that it searches for all files that have the four letters N.I.C.K in that order in their names, and changes their extensions to “.mine”. Because this extension is not known to any system, the files become corrupted. The ‘Nightcrawler’ virus is a mutation of this virus, which, aside from its other effects, manipulates the help files of other software, turning their instructions into nonsense monologs.
Note: no known anti-virus program has yet been detected. It is said to be too old and powerful to be destroyed.
The ‘Javier Vachon’ virus:
This virus has a multitude of affects that should be taken into consideration:
-The computer becomes slow and lazy, skipping most of its tasks.
-The computer’s messages all turn into Spanish.
-The screen keeps blinking.
The only way to get rid of this virus is to infect the computer with the ‘Divia’ virus, which is not much of a remedy anyway. Hence, a clean wipe is suggested
The ‘Screed’ Virus:
This virus attacks the computer’s mouse and disables it. It also turns all text in your word documents into a weird form of English that is not understood by all. It is removable by the ‘Fever’ anti-virus.
The ‘Divia’ virus:
The deadliest virus ever known. It attacks the host computer savagely and deletes all files, applications and data in all directories, subfolders and drives. There is no remedy for the infected computer; not even a clean wipe would help. The best suggestion is to throw away the entire system and get a new one (This is absolutely mandatory, as the virus is seen to have revived in some formatted machines, coming back to kill more)
The ‘Janette DuCharme’ virus:
This virus harms the computer by creating a folder called ‘Raven’ somewhere hidden in one of the drives and houses all other harmful viruses that enter the computer. The ‘Nick Knight’ and ‘Lucien LaCroix’ viruses are known to be sited in this folder, as are most of the other viruses mentioned above. This virus is reported to be seen at least once in application format, but some say it is a myth.
The ‘Ursula’ virus:
Also called “the Urs”, has no hazardous effect on the host computer. It just resides on the hard drive and every once in a while tries to delete itself, mostly without success. Like with the ‘Javier Vachon’ virus, the ‘Divia’ virus is the way that has resulted in killing it.
The “Enforcer” viruses:
These are strange viruses that enter the computer in packs and oddly enough, seek and destroy other viruses. They are also known to destroy anti-virus applications, which makes them even more dangerous. Clean-wipe is really recommended in this case as the brutality of these viruses has no boundaries and can affect every file in a computer.
