Yes, yes i've seen alot of people talking about viruses prior to this message, but I just wanted to say that building anything with dark basic is creative even if it is destructive,I have seen alot of talk of "ohhhh you can't do that" ,"ohhh durrhhh why would you want to do that oh durrhh" . I think if one was creative enough,they could create a nice malicious executable,pack it crunch it, and bind it with something else. Think about it it's direct x and almost every gamer and multimedia user has direct x. It's now a piece of household software. I want to see someone build the most malicious direct x .exe ever,So yeah theres c++ and other code that takes hours to learn. when i first used microsofts visual basic compiler ,well let's just say i couldnt even find the compiler(the gui sucked). Dark basic simplifies the process by making the gui easier. If anyone has any thoughts of this i'd like to hear them ,and btw I know the rules admin's and mod's.(i already foresee ridicule,and criticism)

Digital Demolition,

Ummm...FLAME! I'm sorry, but there is no good reason for this subject matter here. See who can create the most malicious code?! This post deserves a fireball and a lock without a key.

I guess if you think that's ok there's no problem with me sending you a virus right now, eh? It would be creative of me after all.

while it is possible to write code that would completely destroy a system with any compiler it is :

a) a violation of most compilers liscense agreement
b) against the law in most countries {should it be released and do damage to someones p.c )
c) a serious waste of resources -compilers were designed to help you create things not destroy
d) a complete waste of time (depending on the country and if you get caught, 5-50 years in prison)
and lastly,
e) due to all the above, completely stupid.
