Whats the worst virus you ever gotten?

Forgot the name but I tells me that every file I try to open is a virus even though the thing that is a supposed "Anti-Virus software" is a virus itself and needs 39.99 for a full edition to uninstall, It's easy to install it using a format.

AV Security 2012 perhaps?
There are faked codes online that you can just put in to deactivate it, not a big issue.

The thing was it thought my internet driver was infected and disabled it and my chrome.exe, Firefox.exe, iexplore.exe where also infected
How get codes

This worked for me. Basically boot in safe mode, download a good anti-malware software (I used malwarebytes) boot back into normal mode and put the code in, then run the anti-malware software. I guess MSE works too.

One of those scummy "virus protection" programs where everything gets blocked unless you pay for the program. It was such a drag to fix. I don't let anyone use my latest PC so it has been fine for the year.

My finest memory with one of those viruses is when I tried opening everything and it would say it was infected (Task Manager, Notepad, Firefox, etc.). I got so pissed I tried to open Calculator, and for some reason I burst into treats for ten minutes when it told me Calculator was infected.

gitadumi.dll claimed my sibling's laptop. I had to re-format the drive to make the laptop usable again.
Can't believe I still remember that name from about 4 years ago.

Once I went to a fake runescape website that looked legitimate and on the "Allow Java to Run" window, I clicked Allow and got a pretty bad virus on my that PC. The virus kept duplicating desktop shortcuts until the PC crashed. I wasn't aware of how to remove malware at the time, so I installed Linux on it and use it for local, dedicated server testing.

Good riddance.

For my luck, I have never gotten that bad viruses. Only viruses I had would only slow the computer down... I should have none right now. At least that is what the anti-virus says...

I don't know
shit nigga, the only time my computer got bit, it got fucked up hard. No antivirus could detect it. It ruined my OS and fucked my HDD. Had to make a complete formatting.

Although I wonder if it would've been okay if I use Ubuntu to move the files. I think the IT shops in my town aren't the brightest.
