[QUOTE="gayan kalhara, post: 4823438, member: 60168"] [SIZE=4]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, that's with Windows, too Until now it seems Windows is a virus but there are fundamental differences: [U][B]Viruses are well supported by their authors[/B][/U], [U][B]are running on most systems[/B][/U], [B][U]their program code is fast, compact and efficient and they tend to become more sophisticated as they mature. [/U][/B] So, Windows is not a virus! [B]no offense :D:nerd::nerd: source [url]http://www.linuxweb.com/lw_jokes.html[/url] [/B][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
