a silly virus joke:Bush virus - Causes your computer to keep looking for viruses of mass destructionJohn Kerry virus - Reverses every position each time you turn your computer on Al gore virus - Causes your computer to keep counting, recounting, recounting ... ad nauseam
Virii and spyware cost users $7.8 billion in total. The software to prevent infections costs $0. You don't even need to have finished grade school to work that one out.
Actually, the masses are not as technically savvy as us. They barely have an idea what spyware and viruses are and how you are supposed to protect yourself from them.
Headline should read:"MICROSOFT costs users 7.8 Billion - THIS YEAR"Stop kidding yourself, you know its true. There is no escape from the horrors of malware, viruses or whatever else with this pathetic excuse for an operating system. No third-party app will save you in the long run either - no matter how much you paid for it. YOU ARE NOT AN EXPERT WINDOWS USER who can protect yourself. You are not smarter than everyone else because you don't use Internet Explorer and you know how to use Hijackthis. If you use Windows, you are not an expert - you are a fool.
Microsoft makes the windows. right? theres no doublts about that! Then why not get Microsoft to remove all your viruses, and other windows problems? <a class="user" href="http://www.kamrock.net/liveone.htm">http://www.kamrock.net/liveone.htm</a>Why do people download thirt part virus scanners, anti spywares and adware removers?
