Eh?
Try this:

easy enough.
NOTE: This uses the tick, not
looks like your not using backticks.

What are you trying to do?
What are you trying to | (pipe) into date?
If you just want the current date and time, determine what format you want
it in, then set that in the script. Is this as shell script, or perl
script?
curdttm=`date +%Y%m%d-%H%M`
What's this echo $blank that you have? And

For a virus to damage more than the current user's files, it would need root
access. For that, it would have to have some sort of ability to "root" the
