This will remove any virus from a computercraft computer, it just needs to be installed onto a floppy disk!
Install these two things to get it working!
1. pastebin get bD870yYY startup
2. pastebin get tMkFiYyj Restorer

Help! I executed this program, and now my startup file is gone! How do I get it back? Also, when I execute this program if there's already a disk, it craches! Just kididng, but why not just rename startup instead of deleting it, and use peripherals instead of fs.copy("disk/(..)")?

The whole point of this program is that it deletes the startup. If there's nothing in your startup, a virus can't do anything to your computer on startup. Startup disk cannot be disabled by any program, all you need to do is shutdown the computer, put in a disk with a startup, and reboot.

Incorect. In Computercraft 1.77-1.78 and later it is possible to disable disk drive booting. To bypass that type of locked computer you need to pick it up (make sure its labeled) and place it in disk drive like a disk. The contents of said computer will be accessible like a disk.

Really? How do you prevent startup disk drives from working? I've heard nothing of it.

You use
Settings api. You are interested in setting "shell.allow_disk_startup".
You can also disable normal startup using "shell.allow_startup" and there is more settings too.
All details are on said wiki page.

I haven't used ComputerCraft for almost 6 months now, so I probably missed it.

Cool gravedig.
They don't, because the same thing can be achieved by having an empty startup file on a disk.

I know this thread is OLD, however it is a cool concept, but you could make the program scan through all the files on the pc, using readLines(), and look for uses of the fs api and os.pullEvent, they it would display a list of possible bad files and the user could manually look through these to check if they're infected with a virus.
