I would post F-Prot's file, VIRUS.DOC which tells what viruses are and other
good info... But it is a little too big for this editor.
If you can find a copy of F-Prot then look at it... It will tell you most of
what you need to know. (And it is VERY helpful)
BTW, they are usually made in Assembly, but it is possible in most major
languages (BASIC, C, C++, PASCAL, etc.)
Also, there is no exact number of viruses... There are way too many and the
number keeps growing.

Cool.... I need $50. (Just kidding :)
