Windows flaw and worm hole

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

Stinger + Wolfy - I was joking on one level, however I am rarely on the internet for more than two hours at maximum (usually one hour), and I have a firewall, trojan and virus scanners, and of course, a non-static IP. I'm safe enough. Who'd want to hack a computer with a 56k modem anyway? They couldn't set up a very effective zombie could they?

Note: It's good to see that "IT Wolfy" is back giving advice!

Honestly, here are some reasons why Windows is not a virus.

1. Viruses are free.

2. Viruses don't take up most of your hard drive.

3. Viruses don't need 80 megs of RAM.

4. Viruses don't have major bugs.

5. Viruses don't have three different sets of documentation.

6. Viruses don't leak info to the press about the upcoming Jerusalem 95, to keep people from switching to Michelangelo/2 Warp.

7. Viruses aren't on every computer.

8. Nobody cares if a virus turns out to be 16 bit, even though it is advertised as 32...

9. Viruses install themselves !
