    I have never heard of a millipede or "bug" virus. Trojans, RAT's, Worms, Malware, etc.

    And yes, I could create a virus that would destroy your entire hard drive in less than a minute. It's not hard to do. So be careful out there.

    As for the new virus, I'm not sure. I haven't heard anything about it specifically. But there are new viruses released every day. If you happen to come across the name of it, let us know.
