Some of the most insidious malware to come down the pike such as NetSky, Mydoom and Parite have been rendered into 3-D visuals. Romanian artist and MIT researcher Alex Dragulescu has studied the recurring patterns of the most dangerous computer codes that can bring down networks and "painted" them into some of the most beautiful virtual images.
Trying to put a "face" or form to viruses, the awesome images were commissioned by MessageLabs, a computer security company. See for yourself the stunning "Malwarez" art works.
