I do internet security and anti virus, and I wanted to find any codes in order to download something automatically to a computer, in order to figure out a way to defend against it. Just testing this stuff out. How about files such as .zip or BATCH files?

I don't think anyone can post a code like that, as you mention you do internet security & anti virus for a living.
Why would anyone create a code that hijack someones computer?

Maybe wants to figure out how to put a virus on someone's computer or some other file in someone's computer....

Haha, I don't try to put viruses on other people's computers. I just wanted to know, it's okay if you don't feel like telling me.
