install a videogame Hacking your PC or laptop is highly risky, as the person who published that software might have hidden a virus to steal your photos or videos, hijack your computer for ransom (ransomware), steal your social media passwords, or Applications financial etc
Although most video game streamers, especially famous ones, tend to avoid ‘pirate games’, some have no problem using them, even installing them in full live broadcast. One of them was IShowSpeed, who had an embarrassing moment due to a computer virus.
As detailed by Tarreo, this content creator decided to illegally download a horror video game to show it to his followers during its streaming. To his bad luck, the program’s installer was actually a Trojan that crashed his computer live.
As you can see in the video, which has more than 1.8 million views on YouTube, before infecting your PC, a warning appeared saying that it was going to install a virus called Monoxide.exe that had the ability to delete all data of your operating system.
At first, streamer IShowSpeed thought it was a joke; However, when he noticed that the virus began to take control of his computer, he lost control and began to scream, while receiving ridiculous comments from his followers.
“Oh, no, no, no, no. What did I do, brother?”, “I have to call the police, man! , I have to call the Police!”, “My God!”, “My PC has been hacked, it’s done!”, were some of the phrases that the streamer released following his computer was infected.
This man used a virtual machine; his actual computer was not hacked
