Who makes viruses?

Do you think that the Anti-Virus companies form some viruses themselves and release them on the web so users can get affected and then sell the anti-virus software to get rid of it? Iv seen some things on watchdog which made me ask this question. Im not saying ALL viruses but some? to boost profits and sales figures?

A VIRUS IS SOMETHING A DOCTOR CANT PUT A NAME

i think the gaints which sell antivirus programmes
there are more than sufficient number of hackers out there to create and spread viruses

the anti virus software companies are way tooooo busy trying to destroy the viruses that exist already !! forget creating new ones !!

I dont think they have the time / resources to do that...

Could be I would not put it past them but there are some disobedient people about who would create VIRUS for sake of other suffering.
