Re: How to store a virus in MySQL?

[Eus Kevin]

Computer virus by definition is just a computer program.
In turn, a computer program consists of binary codes.
So, it would be the same thing to store either a JPG image, a program, an OGG song, or a computer virus.

Now, your problem is how you can insert a binary data.
The easiest way is to utilizing a C program or PHP script that calls function:
mysql_real_escape_string() [http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/mysql-real-escape-string.html]
That function will return an escaped binary data that is ready to be inserted to your table using INSERT INTO... statement.

Well, tell me if you have a problem with that.
