Loic As A Virus?

    I've been looking at the loic source code (ddos tool, like you didn't know) and it has great potential to become a massive botnet if the right measures were taken.

    Due to anonymous's crap it is of course now a 'virus' to many av companies but a quick msfencode takes care of that, or simply use source code from a previous date and your clear as they seem to have only added the lastest to their list...

    Anyway I've manged to get it to automatically go into hive mind (irc) mode, login and wait for commands and I've figured out how to control it with most of its commands...

    my current issue/issues with it are...

    I can't make it hide itself (runnig is as loic.exe /hidden) will make it hide so its functionality is there... I may have had it at once point but that was a really long time ago when I was messing with it...

    Anyway my point is you could put this into any downloadable and have it run on startup, and the user would be none the wiser... and you'd have a nice ddos capable botnet un-detected...
    You could have it start from a .bat file but why bother when you can hard code it?

    Any one have any ideas or anyone else think to use it this way.. It's a great tool and it could become a very large asset to anyone looking for a b-net

    Why not create a loop that keeps killing task manager? It won't exactly be stealthy but it'll be annoying if they're trying to view their process list in task manager.

    Besides, not a lot of people use other programs to view processes...simple temporary fix
    while( !(succeed = try() ) );

    Ive heard along the grapevine that loic was infact infected.

    Also what is it coded in, in my opinion its probably easier to code one from scratch

    It's coded in C#.
    Wrong, it was not infected. If you download the correct version off sourceforge, it is clean.

    its clean...

    As far as keeping people out of task man, thats no good. If your going to run a botnet you don't want the hosts aware that their apart of one or they'll drop you or turn off the pc..

    as far as going from scratch, eh your probably right but I'm no programmer, I can muck with existing code and get things rolling but I'm not at the point where I can code something from scratch, as much as I may like to. In order for me to get the result I'd like faster I have to modify something...

    IF someone has a suggestion of a lightweight ddos/irc setup thats open source I'll look into it but as it stands, this is we'll an easy way out... I could get something up faster modding this than learning more about programming and build one, that may one day happen but atm thats just going to prolong my end result

    I can code the base for you then you can add features if you like.

    :) That'd be great actually I'd love it if you could do that, It'd be greatly appreciated.

    loic has too much too it that it dosn't need and too much for me to figure out how to remove

    You could always set it to work like another virus have seen which hides itself in another EXE at startup and it just decompiles to temp memory and then runs the exe inside the decompiler.
  • LOIC turns u to zombies but only while it's running that's how it works.
    Joke of course, I sandboxed it and watched packets, and it does really nothing, but there is infected versions all over the web ;) some of them are mine but they didn't get so popular, didn't take the time to spread.
