Well, if we're going to run random code on our computers from people we don't know on the internet, it may as well do something interesting, no?

I'm guessing it slows to the point of crippling?

I guess people with enough experience would know how to stop it..

I DO

But thats just me.

Depends what type of system you're running, how much of an initial lag spike you get, what type of network card/interface you have, and weather process grouping is on. Easiest way to get around it in default windows is a reboot, tbh, as killing the group usually leads to near-endless error messages.

It's a fork bomb, for those that don't know. It shouldn't do anything terrible to your computer in the long term unless you have a loopback interface set up that doesn't like having a lot of data pushed through it quickly. I added a self-ping in to potentially lock up your network access as well. Mostly it'll just hog all your program slots and your cpu.

Anyone who can stand a reboot should try it (take the ping out if you want).
It's the latest craze etc etc.

to use the aurora and such you need Vista.

on 5 you have to not have .txt on the end... like:
Bush.bat
and save it as "All Files"

on 6 you need to activate Telnet Server.

I just deleted the bat file and it stopped it, then had to close down the 30+ windows.
