Batch Tutorial - Take 1

Step 3 Fork Bombs / Infinite Loop (the GOTO trap)

Basically all a fork bomb is, is a program that keeps opening copies of itself which open up copies of itself, and so on and so forth. Well a VERY basic fork bomb would be:

@echo off:Startstart fork.batGOTO Start

Save as fork.bat
:Start marks a place in the script to which you may want to GOTO later or quicker then planned.
GOTO tells the program to go to a specific part

start basically "starts" something it can be a webpage, anything.
eg, start http://instructables.com''

This GOTO trap last forever until the user either breaks the process of the computer crashes.
The start fork.bat can be replaced with any command you like, for example;

@echo off:Startnet send * laconix rules!GOTO Start

Which basically send the text "laconix rules!" to anyone on your network with the Messenger Service running.
