don't bother me about this,
if you can't figure out how to use it,
you probably shouldn't be using a computer.
have fun.

other stuff:
set the topic to <id> <url>, and every bot that joins the main channel
has that id will upgrade to the executable at the url. this requires no
authentification, so be careful about who is able to set the topic in your
bot channel. this will only work in the channel that you define in sbconfig,
and no other channels. the id for this version is "sb10". the id for slackbot
1.1 will be "sb11". so if you want slackbot 1.0 to upgrade to 1.1, set the
topic as "sb10 <url>".

This archive is an almost-complete reconstruction of the legendary Mega Security (also known as Kobayashi), a premier 90s-era "Trojan Database" where malware authors once showcased their work. After a decade offline, the site was brought back in August 2024 by its original creator, MasterRat, who authorized the Malware Gallery to host this modernized, searchable version of the collection. While the original site remains available for those seeking a nostalgic, old-school experience, we are proud to continue its legacy here. Full credit and thanks go to MasterRat and the retired Mega Security staff for their years of dedicated work in cataloging these historical samples.
