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

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.

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-->
