Virus Creators/Distributors Should...

...have their fingers cut off one at a time and shoved up their rectums. :|

I'm tired of having to deal with their pathetic little reasons for living.

I was running McAfee. When I signed up for MSN, it automatically updated it (grr...) And, of course, when I uninstalled MSN it took McAfee with it. And I didn't realize till I got slammed with the I-Worm/Klez.H and Win32/ElKern virii. Infected most of my executables and archives. Had to totally wipe and reinstall (again!!!!)

What possible pleasure could these a$$holes get from ruining someone's evening? I'm still re-installing software now after 10pm. Family's asleep in the other room. I'd rather be in bed with my wife, but I can't leave something like this undone. Sigh.

Come on

I have aol on my computer and my family uses it all the time, i also have no virus scan. I have been virus free for 5 years 🙂

I'd rather be in bed with your wife too. 😀

ignorance is bliss, isn't it? if you don't scan for viruses and therefore don't discover viruses, then you don't have viruses! this just proves that the solution to the whole virus problem is to not use any antivirus software at all! that way, none of us will have viruses! whoopee!

No, some of us are just better at avoiding infections.

I've never had a virus and have only run an AV program off and on over the years.

If the virus is unnoticeable, has no symptoms, and does no damage, who really cares if you have it?

 

[bentwookie]

your problem really lies with using Mcafee...I will never use that crap software again...

NAV has been solid for me.

 

[brentman]

I agree with bentwookie... NAV is my choice for home and corporate virus protection.

I see your point, seems rather pointless to write a virus cuz ur not gonna get credit for it. But some people just have too much time on their hands.

The only time I installed/ran a virus protection software program was when my dad bet me that after 3 years w/a win2k install, that I'd have a virus. We put $$ on it, and I didn't.

But AOL has lots of symptoms, it's very noticable and makes your computer run like crap.

Or so you think. I dare you to run a virus scan and tell us how many hundreds of viruses it finds.
