A very informative book

This tells you just about anything you ever wanted to know about the behavior of computer virii, who makes them, how to make one yourself, and explores how some antivirus programs work. If you do buy this one, you probably won't be disappointed.

A very informing book on virus programming and evolution

This book is very informing and has examples, although outdated in somecases, they could be modifyed to create something more dangourous. The book tells you the safe way to experment with all of the viruses.

Excellent book for a in depth look at Computer Viruses

How to create them, or a person interested in coding Anti-Virus software. It is a must to understand what and how viruses alter executables, in order to repair and detect against viruses. Not for people who just what a program to magical repair their system. But for those who want to know how to do it on their selves own. Requires knowledge of Assembly Lang for IBM PC.
