BagelKore (computer virus)

BagelKore was a computer virus authored by an anonymous programmer at NephirKore Studios. It was created originally as a fake virus to send to friends and other people at the studio as a joke; but the programming in the script was programmed on an accident to seem a bit more real than a fake virus would. It was originally published as a .BAT file, but with the file extension of .EXE to seem more as an actual program portaining to Nephir.



Upon opening BagelKore.exe, a mesage would pop up that read "Nephir got you BITCH!". The virus then opened nearly 20 or more message boxes; all of which read: "Hey Dad, I've been watching too much porn!" and proceedes to open up a box which counts down to a 60 second waittime for a shutdown of the person's computer. When attempting to reboot the computer, it will also reboot the virus when logged back on and repeat endlessly. The only method of stopping the virus is to open Task Manager and end the process of the VBScript involved with the shutdown. The virus has since been removed from the internet completely.
