I don't care what peoples say about our move (VX).
Without VX peoples in AVers can't get money

Where did you get you handle? What does it mean?

In High School my girlfriend call me 'Fox', I like it cause Fox mean clever

What is your view on Virus Creation software (eg. VCL, PS-MPC etc.)?

That software can help somebody to REVENGE or learn how to make virus, specially for somebody that blind about programming language

Macro viruses are much more fun than Asm bcoz, they infect user data not user program. If someone understands Basic he can make MV

Do people outside the VX scene know what you do (parents, girlfriend etc.)?

Yup, My girlfriend know it

Do you do other computer stuff outside VX (Hacking, phreaking, warez etc.)?

Cheating !. I like game, and always use Cheat. :)

Should viruses be illegal? Is there a difference between creation and spreading?

Illegal?, if some body doesn't trade his data, make copy of program, the virus never spread (expect ShareTheFun). So... stop thinking that virus is illegall!

I Hate Win9x, Always 'hang' when install in my PC, 'Plug and Hang' not 'Plug and Play'
