    Hi,

    What would be the best platform to write a trojan in C++? (something basic enough like deleting a file)
    Its part of my college project and not for malicious purposes, not too familiar with C++ or what the best platform would to create this but willing to learn,if anyone can advise that would be great,preferably one easy to use...:)

    Thanks

    meant to say i was looking at downloading "microsoft visual c++ 2008 express edition" would this be suitable?

    If you mean which tool, yeah, that should do fine. Notepad and GCC would be a lightweight alternative.

    Just for reference, folks usually mean OS or operating environment/framework when they talk about "platform". Visual Studio on the other hand is just a tool, C++ is a language, which is more or less the same regardless of what you use to write it.

    Re ease of use, not very for a beginner. If you want to write a "trojan", just make a batch file that does one thing and give it a name that suggests another thing.
