There's a Malware Wiki for anyone who wants to research a particular piece of malware. Exercise at least some caution while going full Vinesauce on your VM.

Upon a user's choice, it would share jokes and facts, manage downloads, sing songs, and talk, among other functions, as it used Microsoft Agent. It's going to spread to folders on your actual hard drive, and you probably don't want that. BonziBuddy ( / bnzi bd.i / BON-zee-bud-ee, stylized as BonziBUDDY) was a freeware desktop virtual assistant created by Joe and Jay Bonzi. Stuff like BonziBuddy should be safe to run on your computer, though.Īlso, this should be fairly obvious, but don't set up any shared folders between your VM and your host OS. Also, some viruses and malware spread over the network, so containing it within a VM won't protect you from spreading it to other computers on your network. As a desktop VA, Bonzi Buddy helps users to manage their digital tasks and schedules. Some viruses these days are written to detect whether or not they're running in a VM or not, and, thus, may not behave the way you expect them to, in order to prevent people from reverse-engineering or researching said piece of malware. It is still able to give you adware Im pretty sure, but ever since bonzi software was deleted it cant give you viruses like it used to. Bonzi Buddy is considered a virus due to the spyware and adware technology through which it extracts users’ information and data without their permission. Just because you're running a virus in a VM doesn't mean it's automatically safe and contained. Nice tutorial, though, there's probably something very important you should point out:
