Creeper's message
editCreeper also contained a message that loaded when a computer infected with Creeper was booted up. Creeper's message read: "I'm the CREEPER! try and stop me!" which was a boast at which it spread. The only way to close the message was to restart the computer. --User:SmartyPantsKid 16:01, 25 June 2013 (UTC)The Creeper virus was older than some of the viruses we have today so it wasn't as harmfull
Is Reaper really an Antivirus?
editAccording to the Wikipedia article for Antivirus software, Reaper was only considered by some to be the first antivirus, and that Reaper was a virus in of itself that seeks out and deletes the Creeper. This is a strange conflict between articles that can confuse readers A.R. Pierogovsky (talk) 17:49, 2 July 2026 (UTC)
