| The first known virus was called the "Creeper virus," which was detected on ARPANET infecting the Tenex operating system in the early 1970s. Creeper gained access independently through a modem and copied itself to the remote system where the message, 'I'M THE CREEPER : CATCH ME IF YOU CAN.' was displayed. The Reaper program, itself being a virus, was created to delete Creeper. The creators of both programs are unknown. |
