Die worm, DIE!!!!

Post by h. »

Yeah, I got it. That w32 blaster worm virus shit. Now, I can appreciate that there are people smart enough to fuck with Microsoft and all that, but when they are fucking with me and trying to potentially crash my frankenputer? Fuck YOU!!!!
I just want to do my stuff. Study, read the bb, check my mail. Why do I have to suffer the punishment because someone is pissed at corporate america? I didn't do anything. Shit, the software on this damned thing was bootlegged. The computer itself was built from scavenged parts of deceased computers.
I just spent a good long time having to eradicate this shit and then patch what might be wrong just in case.
THIS PISSES ME OFF!
Fuck, why don't you go after Microsoft's bank accounts and leave the rest of us poor schmucks alone?
Assholes.

This is nothing...

A mere inconvenience...

A prank...

All this does it shut off your computer and launch a DOS attack at the feeder of Tommy's children.

A virus can wipe out your ALL data if it wants to.

Poems, novels, websites, anything.

Be safe... never surf the web without virus protection.

And back your shit up!

Viral activity is the ultimate bad behavior...

"Back your shit up". Ha ha, that sounds rather vulgar! Should be an album title by Johnny and the Shit-Faced Fuckers.

I was trying to do some volunteer work on a computer today and it just kept shutting down. The guy claimed it was just a lack of memory but hey, how do I know? I've worked on it before and never had a problem with it.

What the worm does, apparently, is shut your computer down at random intervals... while displaying a message about Bill Gates... and then on Sunda nights it launches a DOS (Denial of Service) attack at Windows Update web site.
