[edit] Z-Bomb

Probable hoax, nothing on Google for Z-Bomb virus; looks like someone's joke website. NawlinWiki 19:59, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete as outright hoax. The file extension of this supposed virus is ".pwn". I think that says enough. ~ Matticus78 20:30, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

• Additional a little digging around with a hex editor reveals the "virus" file on the website is in fact a .zip file containing a few short text files ("Welcome to the Z-Bomb. Can you find the three secret messages?"), and an assortment of further nested .zip files, which ultimately contain a load of larger (7Mb) files containing the letter "z" over and over again in plaintext. A load of timewasting rot, in other words. ~ Matticus78 20:37, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
