Below is a selection of destructive actions Gate Script administers for generating worms:

  • copies worms to the system catalog
  • encrypts code
  • infects files on local disks (files with vbs and htm extensions).
  • displays messages on the monitor screen

    There are three versions of the Gate Script constructor program. Most viruses generated with it contain mistakes and are therefore inoperative.
