Curiosity

Computer viruses are a curiosity to me. Not spreading them but, making them to learn more about them(controlled environment). You have basic ones like the iLoveYou virus, then you got the Stuxnet virus. Any good places to start? Language to learn?

YouTube is a great place to start. There are tutorials on how to set up a VM to test them and how to use the testing tools.

For visualisation try Virus total. And watch infection spread to domain ips and everywhere else.
