If you think you had bad viruses, think again! I did a virus scan using
a very updated virus check, and after 3 hours of scanning, 3987 files
had been infected with viruses! What had happened was that there were a
about 15 viruses in total (Detected as Trojans and Worms) and one of
them duplicated itself about 3500 times! Bad hey! But now this
excellent *cough*registered/licenced*cough* program has now managed to
"clean" them all out. Yay! What really bad virus experiences have you
had?

Thats alot of viruses.
My worst experience was when CIH made my computer unable to boot. Luckily for me it wasnt the worst version of CIH that kills your bios.

Ouch! The virus that duplicated itself was called "Vongo" or something.
Many of the viruses were classified as Trojans and Worms, so I aint to
happy about that. Proberly explains why I recieved so much spam then :/

Omg spoolE, lots of viruses you got there, i had once a keylogger and a

it out of my computer

Ofcourse everyone knows that you have a registered product, which you DO have...Which is obviously impossible for you to download it for free and crack it

Ah, I get it! Sarcasm! Lol! Well actualy my brother got it from work, and he has permission to use it at "home" (My computer). It's license expires in 3 years time.

I've had more than that I'm sure. Every single exe infected with the same virus... and the files were unrecoverable. Parite is nasty.

That used to happen to me too. I did a virus scan and got rid of it. Though I think I topped anyone here with the most viruses.
I had a very old old old computer, had it for about 4 years. Never ran a virus scan once until i was about ot get a new one. I had about 7,000 viruses. A lot of the same one, like SpoolE's that duplicated itself. But, thats still a s**t load of viruses.

That sounds like a sophisticated virus covering its tracks to me. Its more likely that Nickleplate is being held hostage by said viruses, while they ransack his home.

the worst thing i had was 40 different "sleeping" trojans in my "system
volume information" folder, just waiting to be activated =P.
After some fiddling, the trojans got killed.

Haha I think i've beaten you all!
My old computer which I had no idea how to use back then was using a demo virus scanner so it never updated and thus I finally scanned with a purchased Mcafee to find it contained roughly 10,000 viruses and I wondered why my computer had gone crazy...
