It's your copy of Windows, the only illegal thing would be to re-distribute it for money.

I messed up windows ages ago when I started to delete windows system files from Ubuntu on a Multiboot computer. I only did it because in windows I can't connect to the internet but on Ubuntu I can?

Yah, I usually run my commands from notepad because everywhere I run them the CMD is blocked. One of my favorites is replacing Mozilla Firefox's icon, on someone else's computer, with a batch file named "Mozilla Firefox." What it does is when you click it it deletes its self and then creates 1,000,000 text documents named "Noob" with "You are a serious uber noob..." inside of the text files.    It's a real hoot to see someone's reaction or best yet their computer lag out.

I know how to make a "trojan horse". Not a real one that'll erase your files, only open a text file that says "GOT YOU."

Who can't? No offense, but this is kinda basic.

I know one that can reset any user's password. And one that will install a virus of your choice. My friend programmed shutdown.exe in Java, it shuts down your computer, but a real hacker could remote access your computer, install a keylogger, get an admin pass, then destroy the system.

Why would they destroy the computer before waiting for the keylogger to steal any information? Why would you even get the admin password, unique to that machine, if you were going to wipe it? And why would you even need to install a keylogger if you can just as easily hack the passwords without the keylogger?
I'm pretty sure you have no idea what you're talking about

No, but the afrontmentioned hacker does. I only know how to use the nuke, not where to fire it. And I don't care if I destroy the world while attempting to wipe up a bread crumb. We're called Script Kiddies, and although real hackers disrespect us, our leader Mafiaboy shut down Yahoo! Microsoft, Dell, and all that for a few weeks.

You really don't know what you're talking about do you.

How would you know real hackers?

If your leader "shut down" Yahoo! Microsoft, Dell, and all that, he'd be in jail.

If i were you i would delete that post or you'll get really embaressed when you realise what you've actually said there.

i'm convinced you just found the words and put them into a sentence thinking you're all cool.

True.

I know someone who can access all the code of a running computer. He can even do it on his iPhone. 0.o

I know just about every trick in the book as far as CMD and batch files go.

If I wanted to, I could make any sort of virus, from a simple run and destroy, to one that can steal data, put it on the net, and then wipe you out.
Really, it isn't hard, even one that is impossible to detect. It is just the fact that virus writers that let out their viruses are all dumb, and can't code well, because smart, or even average code writers are smart enough to know that releasing viruses has serious consequences. 

But instead, I make legitimate batch files, like SIMPL-DOS. http://simpldos.webs.com

BTW, I said they are dumb, but I am impressed by some of their viruses, like the SQL Slammer and Conficker. Impressed, but they still are dumb to release them.

I don't really make batch files all the time. I just use CMD. Whenever I do make batch files, they're like text-based games.
