sven Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 Is Windows a Virus ?No, Windows is not a virus. Here's what viruses do:1.They replicate quickly - okay, Windows does that.2.Viruses use up valuable system resources, slowing down the system as they do so - okay, Windows does that.3.Viruses will, from time to time, trash your hard disk - okay, Windows does that too.4.Viruses are usually carried, unknown to the user, along with valuable programs and systems. - Sigh.. Windows does that, too.5.Viruses will occasionally make the user suspect their system is too slow (see 2) and the user will buy new hardware. - Yup, Windows does that, too.Until now it seems Windows is a virus but there are fundamental differences: Viruses are well supported by their authors, are running on most systems, their program code is fast, compact and efficient and they tend to become more sophisticated as they mature.So Windows is not a virus.It's a bug.

ripken204 Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 im with jeremy here, didnt find this funny at all since they are all wrong. you rly need to learn how to properly protect yourself from viruses/adware/spyware, that alone will make windows run well. to make windows run great you need to nlite the hell out of it and disable a bunch of services too, once you've done that then windows will be amazing.

Lazy8 Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 Sticks and stones, dudes...Microsoft has been the 800 pound gorilla for almost as long as the personal computer has existed--I don't think the heckling from the peanut gallery has hurt their sales, reputation, or quality. All publicity is good--part of the price of successful marketing, I guess. Let the product speak for itself.Anyway, I enjoy a joke every bit as much as the stuffed shirts in Redmond (OK, maybe a little more). So I think I'll throw us back on topic with an oldie.
