Viruscoin.... No virus included.
Viruscoin is a modified clone of Litecoin, which is a lite version of Bitcoin using scrypt as a proof-of-work algorithm. The intent behind Viruscoin was to take the bad rep away from Bitcoin. For example: Bitcoins have been used in underground communities to pay for viruses and other potentially illegal goods. The Viruscoin developers saw this as a threat to the future of Bitcoins (via attacks from mainstream media), so they created the Viruscoin as a substitute for those kind of transactions. The Viruscoin is the only cryptocoin that isn't trying to compete with the already well established Bitcoin.

I have no idea what is going on here. If Bitcoin's future was in trouble, then I'm pretty sure that Viruscoin would not be the answer to all of our hopes and dreams.
Branding is important, this is not a good brand. But good luck!
