Rising YouTube Star iShowSpeed Accidentally Installs a Virus Which Destroys His Computer on Stream

The YouTube star iShowSpeed is growing at a rapid speed because of his energetic and flamboyant personality. This YouTuber does crazy things on the live stream to entertain his audience even if that means he had to install dangerous malware or virus on his streaming device.

Computers and mobile phones have become a part of our daily lives and it’s impossible to spend a day without them. For streamers, a computer is the most important piece of equipment as it is basically their main source of income. However, iShowSpeed can risk this crucial streaming equipment to entertain the audience.

 iShowSpeed installs a virus on his computer

Usually, people install hundreds of dollars worth of anti-virus on computers to protect them from malware and viruses. However, iShowSpeed might be the only one in the world who would be ignorant about this and install a virus despite the warnings.

iShowSpeed has been making videos where he apparently installs viruses on his computer during the live stream. In a recent stream, the YouTuber installed a file called “NO ESCAPE” which he thought to be a game as he said, “I forgot I had this game.” But the desktop notified him about that file being a ‘malicious file.’

But iShowSpeed, who didn’t know what ‘malicious file’ meant, thought it was his PC complimenting him on owing a good game. After running the virus, his PC restarted and got stuck on the Windows lock screen. Then he tried entering his password on various accounts on the screen, but his computer didn’t start even after several tries.
