Viruses don't harm, ignorance does!

"Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression;
this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference
and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through
any media and regardless of frontiers."
Article 19 of "Universal Declaration of Human Rights"

Welcome to VX Heavens! This site is dedicated to providing information about computer viruses (or virii, as some would prefer) to anyone who is interested in this topic.

This site contains a massive, continuously updated collection of magazines, virus samples, virus sources, polymorphic engines, virus generators, virus writing tutorials, articles, books, news archives etc. Even the viruses for the platforms you've never heard of. We also offer free hosting for virus authors and groups.

Some of you might reasonably say that it is illegal to offer such content on the net. Or that this information can be misused by "malicious people". I only want to ask that person: "Is ignorance a defence?"
