I know its means 'suicide' in Japanese word.

But is it a virus or a software?

it's a ritual that has roots in the samurai world I believe. you take a sword and stab yourself in the belly and pull up toward your chest, then left and right... I guess spilling your guts enables you to regain your honor.

harakiri also described japanese fighter pilots who, during WWII, went on a suicide mission and crashed their planes into American war ships.

The ceremony, also called "seppuku", is actually using a tanto and cutting from left to right in the belly, and THEN up to the chest if the samurai can muster it. His "second" would be there to behead him with a sword before he falls. I don't believe it has anything to do with Japanese fighter pilots, since disembowelment is integral in the ritual. I could be wrong, though.

he's not asking about the ritual... he wants to know if it's a virus or software..

HARAKIRI VIRUS

The Harakiri Virus is a computer virus written in Pascal, which infects .COM and .EXE files. The virus is loaded into memory by executing an infected program and then affects the computer's runtime operation, corrupts program files. After infecting a program, the virus displays the message: Your PC is alive and infected with the HARAKIRI virus!
