Well just to say Fury ,my computer is so slow . " How slow is it ?" the audience asks. "It's so slow , that when I order Internet on it , the company has already gone outta business , by the time I get it . " Hahahahaha the audience replies .
I took three years of computer programming back in highschool .Circa 1978-1982 .Back then we had basic programming and machine language , which has turned into DOS .
I haven't really hardly touched a computer since . I know that might be hard for allot of people in this day and age to understand , but I've been busy , If you know what I mean .
I got this computer almost exactly one year ago , at the behest of my sister #1 , who is a computer engineer for the Navy , and my friends and co-horts who kept kidding me that I didn't have a computer .
I bought this computer as a trial of what I could do with it . I got it for $150.00 from a person that bought all of the University of North Alabama's old computers that they were replacing . She , of course was a good friend of mine , and , she too was happy to see me finally get a computer .
She swiped all the old memory . She put in new modems . Ever since , I have been on my way .
I have windows 98 second edition . And well to expound as I have b4 . My computer is slow . I am slow . At least , the rest of my friends and family are glad to have me on line and writing .
It's just , maybe some of you COULD GIVE ME A BREAK EVEN JUST ONCE .thanks

Also I like to get on late at night , because there is noone else here .
I liked your links Fury , but you still haven't given me an explanation as to WHY these people do what they do ?
Why all the virii ? I still don't get it .
DO THEY HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO ?
You haven't answered the question Fury .
I want an answer . PLEASEEEEEEE . Seriously . A good answer . I just don't understand the whole concept of computer virii . What does it accomplish ?

Or... Perhaps the major anti-virus companies (Symantec) are the ones making all the viruses.  Ever wonder how they come out with a statement that a new virus has been released, and then two days later they have miraculously come up with the anti-virus?
"Pay us money, subscribe to us. For the 24-month plan, we will give you both the virus and anti-virus."

Wow , thats deep Cosmic . Although , it sounds like what a major Corp. would do . The kids in the basement I understand too .
I and a few of my friends were major nerds too , back in the late seventies early eighties . But we really didn't do much more than break in to our highschool computer and change some grades .
I can't imagine being that pissed at the world , as to really mess up people lives . I accept these answers to viruses but I think I'm looking for more answers than that .
Does anyone else want to expound upon the subject of computer viruses ?
Also , what retribution do we have , per se , to these kinds of attacks ? And , furthermore what steps are our service providers and Govt. taking to punish these people .
Just thoughts to ponder .

The Gov't can't do anythign about it. Viruses are too anonymous and widespread to trace to a single source. Thus, unless the culprit's are caught in the making, there is no punishment. ----------------------- Jester Squad

Hey , sometimes I get a little abstract .
I can't help myself . Not trying to brag at all , but Iv'e been around for to many years to just think about the norm .
Like I said before , I think too hard about stuff that really even doesn't matter i.e. does the light really go out when you shut the fridgerator door ?
Age old questions tend to be my problem . Along with the fact that I like to think too much , therefore , I constantly , come up with new questions , that will someday become age old questions .
Does this make anymore sence to you , than a rock that has lived many more longer years than we have , and perhaps thinks upon a different level than we do and perhaps could even be more intelligent than us .
I know , by the laws of science , that this is not possible . Therefore it is a joke . But somehow people don't seem to get my abstract jokes .
I used to have a bunch of friends who were on my same joke level . In otherwords , we would just come up with some of the abstracted stuff and would play along with each other on those subject lines . Sorry to all who don't understand me . ----------------------- "my soul was cast into the vastness of space for my fear of loneliness" Chronicles of Mykill Doomslayer bk III>chpt 6

So you've called me to settle your dispute? Might I ask what problem or inconveniance you've sufferered here? My freind- you've been warned before by myself and others. Should you continue to pick fights here rather than finish your training- I will officially end it. Am I clear? Your response should not entail other phrases that becon for a lashing...
As for your contest- good idea Trevor but a waste of both your efforts and Mykills. Should you want to settle things- Mykill can finish his training and prove he's worth something and you can attend your new position as XO of Nazgul Squadron. That's all I have to say.
(Incase you didn't pick up on my hint- just don't post here at all :> Finish your training and leave it at that.) ----------------------- *Flash Was Here...*
