I want to have fun with old viruses and see how many i can put on this old computer i have. Obviously i would only use them on my home computer because all new antivirus programs would easily delete them.

Wow. A sure way to make something useful to be junk.
Funnily, everyone else wants to prevent from getting infected, but you?
Hehe.
No offense. I’ve tried it. My local network is filled with lots of malware. After reformatting, get connected to the Internet immediately without firewall or antivirus. A few seconds later, you’ll realize the Internet is very busy transmitting data. Next moment got infected with Ahsan’s virus. Then some other malware.
Can’t seem to do anything when nothing works minutes later, except a restart, and a reformat. Why? How you’re gonna look for the virus when you can’t open folders, do any search?
Try Google-ing a search. Then, just click on links till you get Google ‘potential malware warning alert’ if you’re using FireFox. Smartly, ignore the ‘Get Me Out Of Here’ and go in. Chances of getting infected can be high.
I’m sorry. Can’t seem to figure out since I’ve never tried that out before. Don’t worry, not all malware, even old ones, can be detected by modern antivirus. Even an updated AVG doesn’t detect the Ahsan’s malware I got infected with, using a newly reformatted system.
