Viruses can be romantic too: An introduction to the top ten interesting viruses

The anti-virus software company Panda Security recently listed the most interesting viruses that have appeared in the past six months. Among them are the most wasteful virus, the scariest virus, the cleanest-loving virus, and the most informative virus.

Scariest Virus: MalwareProtector2008 and AdvancedXpFixer will gradually "eat away" at the desktop of an infected computer. In fact, these two viruses were created by an anti-virus software company, which hopes to encourage users to use their product through this method.

Cleanest-Loving Virus: Tixcet.A will delete all files on the user's hard drive.

Kidnapper Virus: PGPCoder.E and "ransomware." This virus encrypts the data on the user's computer hard drive and then demands money from the user. The user can only obtain the decryption password by paying.

Most Romantic Virus: Nuwar.OL, Nuwar.QI, and Valentin.E use romantic content to entice users to click and activate them, thereby infecting the computer.
