MEMZ Mug

A trojan by the hacker Leurak, created for danooct1's Viewer-Made Malware series. Written as a stealth parody of script kiddies. Available on GitHub. Creates a big lightshow consisting of, but not limited to various screen glitches (error icons, color inverting, text reversal, Droste effect), error sounds, random key input, random mouse movement, and embarrassing Google searches with Vinesauce references. Its sole destructive payload is overwriting the MBR with a text message and Nyan Cat animation, which is fixable with a Windows install CD. Available as Clean, which is downloadable directly, has toggles for the payloads and doesn't overwrite the MBR, or as Destructive, which does everything automatically and also launches multiple processes of itself - if any are killed, the rest floods the screen with message boxes and BSODs the computer. There's a spinoff of MEMZ, called VineMEMZ, specifically made for Joel's streams. Also, Destructive needs to be built using Visual C++, Python and x86 assembler, putting a stop to most script kiddies' plans. Because Joel from Vinesauce ran MEMZ on the Windows 10 Destruction stream, his dumbest fans (no offense to Joel) tend to assume he discovered it, despite him explicitly thanking danooct1. Also, a clickbait-ish video showing off MEMZ and calling it one of the "most dangerous viruses" (MEMZ isn't even a virus, it's a trojan) has over a million views, far more than the 700k on danooct1's video.
