However it is very hard to stamp out viruses completely. The virus writer tests technologies and tries to get around them. "Some virus creators do it for pure creativity, to see how tight they can get the code, how efficient it can be, how well they can hide it," he said. But most virus writers who do it for the technical challenge do not release their viruses. Instead, they simply share their code with other virus writers. They want their ability to be recognised by their peers.
