Andrew Illarionov[2] (Russian: Андрей Илларионов; (born: 2003 [age 22–23])[3][4]), better known online as Enderman (also known as Endermanch, formerly Ender's Show), or Andrew, is a Russian YouTuber known for his videos about computer viruses and experimenting with operating systems. He currently lives in Kaluga, Russia[1] but most of his videos are completely in English as of 2016, and his computer is completely in English as of 2018.
On October 22, 2021, Andrew built his very first, all new Windows XP computer to celebrate its 20th anniversary, after being inspired from Tech Tangents to create a similar video. Andrew stated that it was his dream to build such machine and wasn't really aiming for high specs as it's not meant to be a gaming computer. The ULTRAXP PC will be the testing machine for corruptions.
On January 22, 2021, Andrew created his second YouTube channel, and on the next day, Andrew created his first video on that channel titled "NoEscape.exe on a real computer!".
On November 3, 2025, Andrew's second channel was terminated because YouTube falsely linked it to a Japanese channel which was also terminated.[5] He posted a video to the main channel complaining about this and stating how YouTube's AI detection system was to blame.[6] Shortly after this was posted, his main channel was terminated as well.[7]
On November 4, 2025, both of Andrew's channels were reinstated.[8]
Music[]
Andrew uses music from Windows96 in his intros, specifically "Drive Slow" and "Landscaping". Windows96 is a vaporwave music creator and Andrew had influenced their music to spread across the internet and become mildly popular. He sometimes still uses their music in his videos. He also uses dubstep music, music from online levels in the game "Geometry Dash" and other lo-fi tracks in his videos.
MalwareWatch[]
MalwareWatch has been a side project aside the YouTube channel. The site is made for raising awareness to malware, as he uploads them to a GitHub repository, and useful software like VMWare, Operating Systems, drivers, and more. The project started in 2017 as he got the enderman.ch domain for his friends, and moved the project to dozens of hosts, now on malwat.ch which redirects to malwarewatch.org, and kept it from there. Since 2019, more and more people contributed to the server, which expanded the server to allow software repository.[9] At the end of February, the site was randomly wiped down. As of April 6, 2022, he got the site back up and running again, and is currently restoring the project to where it was.[10](See description of this site)[11]
At a seemingly unknown time in 2023, he got his former domain before MalwareWatch, Enderman back. He used to use this site back in his 2017, 2018, to 2019 days, until he switched to MalwareWatch. The URL is "enderman.ch" and has all of his videos, wallpapers, and more stuff like captions archived on there at "files.enderman.ch."
The reason you can't access his website by typing "malwat.ch" anymore is because the company that he was using to make the domain, (which was russian) started making people pay money for the service in-order for them to keep their domain. No one really knows how he got his former domain, "enderman.ch" back, but it might have something to do with the company probably making less money and making it free again, but then if that was true then the redirect, "malwat.ch" should work when trying to access it.
