    Update, after running for over 4.5 hours it is still running and only on the f's in the windows system32 folder... keep those guesses coming.

    Fine, 50k.

    And I have to agree with the "sell it" idea. It's a modern miracle. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    No, it's what happens when people use admin accounts 24/7 (and probably Internet Explorer with default security settings and probably no decent firewall capable of catching programs asking for interweb access). <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    There's that, plus being too clueless to recognize when a file probably has a virus.

    You have to wonder what these guys did to acquire all those damn virii.

  • MantridMantrid Lockpick Join Date: 2003-12-07 Member: 24109Members
    Hmmm... number of viruses? Can I use factorials?
  • Mad_ManMad_Man Join Date: 2003-06-13 Member: 17359Members, Constellation
    You know as I think about it, a good virus patches the hole it came though so that no more can get though. So using that logic that means each one used a diffrent exploit and thus windows is looking a lot like swis cheese

    Why would a virus patch the hole it came through? Viruses generally try to ruin something important on the person's computer, why would they make it harder for another piece of software to ruin something else?

    Uhm, don't you mean Compaq Presario? Did you forget to run your Spell-Check?

    Final update before giving final number.

    After healing the first 32,921 I have re-started the scan.. and the FINAL countdown begins... from now on, you can not change your guess. Give me your final guesses and we shall see who wins.

    52,784 is my guess.
