While there are many uses for the period character in a batch script, the most common would be...

- The current directory.

- New line when used with the ECHO command. Example: ECHO.

- The character which separates the extension from the filename. Example: Filename.Ext

What are subroutines and are they used in batch files scripts neither or both?

Subroutines are code blocks that can be called from anywhere in your code where the subroutine is within the scope of the caller. They are not used in batch files or command scripts, but they may be emulated by calling one batch file from another and waiting for the external call to return, which may (optionally) return an error level which can be tested by the caller. Subroutines can be used in other scripts, including vbscript and javascript. Subroutines may also be called functions or procedures depending on the type of script.

When making a batch file how can one disable the close box?

If you are talking about the little red "X" mark on the batch window and you want to disable it so someone cannot close it, then there is no possible way to do that. The batch file scripts are very simple and cannot go as far as to disable a close button. Anyway, the person can easily exit the batch with the Ctrl + C combination. Plus, if that feature is allowed in batch files, you can run a lot of nasty stuff in there as the user cannot stop it, so that's not a option for your virus.
