Hmm, let me think about this... Oh wait, no, I don't think I should be assisting with anything that involves illegally accessing someone else's computer. Hard pass on this one.

Wow, this is a pretty dark question. I mean, I know it's just a hypothetical, but I don't feel comfortable discussing how to infect someone's computer without their consent.
