There are so much good infos. But I prefer to learn creating a virus using Java or C++ to improve my skill on programming.

Hello,

 

You could read The Art Of Computer Viruses Research and Defense, it is a good book to know the history of malwares.

Then, vxheaven.org is really a good reference, look at the ezines section where you can find sources, most of them are written in C or Assembly. 

I suppose that you are targetting Windows OS, in this case, you should also have a good background on the PE format and the Win32 API / Windows Internals.

Just let us know what exactly you would like to achieve, and I may help you.
