Because they are in cahoots with microsoft who actually makes the worms to generate revenue for anti-maleware companies, which have to pay Bill Gates a monthly tithe.

I read the CBS article, and I am less than worried. This thing is obviously known and being dealt with.

there's hundreds of new worms/viruses/trojans coming out everyday Pol, don't worry about it, they just chose a random one every month to keep computer illiterates aware of the problem that is with us 24/7 (they usually chose a slow news day). Having all the latest updates is a must anyway.

XD

[Liitha]

thats what automatic updates are for

[Desiree]

read an article that microsoft was coming out with an automatic update just for this one and mom told me it had officials that protect against this stuff worried because the people were watching everything they did.

 

yeah... stephen/ferathil got me this morning by taking the harddrive out of my computer and saying it apparently only attacks vista >_<

IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW WHY WINDOWS SUCKS SO MUCH!

[Guest dragonsworn1991]

Grrr It will be ok. I will send you my old macbook.  ;)

[Roka]

did you ever happen to check the number of updates Microsoft has issued since winxp? It's several hundred thousand... just to put it into perspective: 8 years since XP = 8*365 days = 2920 days. So, several hundred thousand updates in that time... let's settle for 292000 to have an even number, gives you: 100 updates per day. One extra update... big whoopdyda? Nope :p

 

Oh and, they're all DANGEROUS until the next one comes along, which is usually about half an hour later...

[Desiree]

anyhoo, I've had one too many pranks today so I'm off for now. *needs to pull her head back together and goes to find the gauze/bandages to keep it together* oy... what a morning it's been already... though I was going to have to merge with RP side with my tinkers and had a fried hard drive before that! now stephen's saying he's gonna get fired if he gets in trouble one more time... bs...
