www.vietatonline.com museum - work in progress
www.vietatoonline - virus museum - offers a wide collection of objects/viruses archived and historically ordered.
The museum offers information concerning viruses, anti-viruses, myths, hackers and where to find them on the web. The museum supports freedom of information, and therefore places its collection at everyone's disposal. Anyone can obtain a virus from our collection by sending us a request via e-mail.
The museum's collection contains some 1300 works (as of September 2000) and has been established principally through donation. The collection is open
to all, from beginners to experts, including hackers. If you send a virus of your own making or one that has infected your computer, you will
automatically become an honorary member of the www.vietato.org.
