PYrus is a prank virus built on python. It does not harm the computer in any way. Python is necessary to run the program. It only runs on Windows since it is showing the Blue Screen of Death and dependencies won't work on other operating systems.

Disclaimer: This is not an actual virus. It shows only pictures and plays sounds to make it look scary. It won't be responsible for any real computer viruses affected your computer in any way.

• You don't have to close any open program or folder other than the one you started it, script will automatically go to the desktop after 5 seconds and take a screenshot.
