I'd like to write a pretty in depth tutorial on how various viruses,worms and trojans work.Besides just reading about them though,I'd like to load them on my hack box and study them for myself.In order to do this,I'm going to need a pretty big collection of bugs(new and old).Does anyone know where I could find something like this?I know a lot of skiddy sites have a variety of trojans,but I haven't found any with virii and worms.Also if anyone else in here has a collection like this,I'd appreciate it if you could send some my way.

Another thing.How would I go about picking these little nastys apart to see the inner workings of them.I'd like to reduce the risk of infecting my comp until I'm ready to,so I don't end up reformatting my hard drive 5 times a day,or screwing something up beyond repair.

One last thing.Is their any particularly rare bugs out there that I should keep an eye out for?
