msg * This virus was created by Lollerofhell. Have a nice day!

NOTE: You can change the part that comes after [msg * ].
Now save this as, say, VIRUS.bat
NOTE: The .bat at the end is very important, do not forget it! (But you can change the text that comes before it.)
Update: You no lomger have to do this, I have uploaded the .bat .

I'm sorry, but just look at the bottom of the page. All 7 Related 'ibles are exactly the same as this one. Search the site before you submit next time LOLLER.

Yomgosh!  My computer's about to die!  If only this were a prank or a fake virus!  x-(

Do you know what the best part is?  Look carefully at the "green screen" screenshot.  Right at the bottom, where it attempts to shut down your computer... DENIED.  I suspect that's the effect of post-XP windows access controls (can't say for sure, I'm one of those people holding on to XP with my fingernails because it lets me actually be productive as a dev). 

Now these pointless pranks can't even get as far as the sixty seconds of annoyance caused by restarting your computer.

Another one. Great...

By the way, after @echo off, you no longer need to put the @ sign in front of echo.
