This isn't really a virus ... its simply a shutdown program which will make your friends freak out.

First, you will need to Delete the shortcut of "My Computer" icon on your desktop (Don't Worry that's only a My Computer shortcut). 

Second, you will now create a new FAKE "My Computer" icon by creating a desktop shortcut.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

A Create Shortcut Window will open. In that box, write the following:

shutdown -s -t 10 -c "VIRUS DETECTED!!"

(note: the number 10 can be replaced by any other number. That number corresponds to the number of seconds before the computer will shutdown. Here I have chosen 10 in order to have enough time to close it before my computer shuts down. Also, the message between quotes can be replaced by something like "YOU HAVE BEEN INFECTED BY A TROJAN VIRUS" or some other great idea. However, the message must be between quotes.) 

------------------------------------------------------------------------

simply click on Next and Change the name that you want for it. In this case I have chosen "My Computer  but it can always be renamed how you prefer.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

click on Finish and ... here's your shutdown virus!!!! Not very convincing right? Well, in that case let's change our icon!

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Select Change Icon

(Note: A box saying "system 32 does not have any icons choose from a different list" or something like that may pop-up; if it does simply click on Ok) 

------------------------------------------------------------------

Now... it depends on what you have named your shutdown virus ... If you chose My Computer scroll all the way to the right and you will find the icon. If you did not choose Internet Explorer feel free to choose a different icon... Remember it has to be something that people will click on.

Now Here's our Icon ... Now it looks like something that people will click on.

hehehe
