A classical virus, from the good old days. None of this botnet/bitcoin mining in the background nonsense.

I've always wanted to make a virus like those of the olden days. I wouldn't do anything malicious with it, but maybe I would deploy it to a friends computer if it wasn't very destructive. What resources are there to learn about viruses?
On the Atari ST we had a boot sector virus that inverted the mouse Y-axis after some random time.

So annoying.
