This is an 'anti-virus' support forum and not a virus distribution service. You signed up today and have posted twice basicilly asking for help in getting viruses. So we have to ask your reasons and motives in these requests ?
Not that it will do you much good in getting assistance in building a virus collection.

Hi cyberbeast 609,

Why don't you contact H.D. Moore, he is into the same thing, and even has a search engine opened up, which was at once censored of course, or why don't you join the Cult of the Dead Cow group, that say they are in a full disclosure project and making a malware gallery for good purposes, as we may believe them. I think this is the wrong way around. One must not be a malware author to be a good malware fighters, as a good fire fighter should not be a good fire-raiser.
What you could do instaead is learn to code securely, learn to work parsers, analyzing tools, compilers and re-compilers, hex viewers, and startup lists, dll checkers, and dependency walkers, that is better way to understand malware, and what to do against it in process and registry. Read, read, read, and do not collect malware, fight it. Curiosity killed the cat ye know,
