WHAT?! It's a challenge sure but so is MURDER. Being a challenge is not justification for an act. Look, are you the sort of person who makes virii and spreads them around online? Or, do you just infect your OWN machines and try to get rid of them? If it's the latter, I have no beef. The former, and I must say you are a JERK and I will NOT take that back. I don't care what your justification is, if you spread virii, you are no good to to anyone and should be punished. Same with hacking. Only do it to systems you have full permission to do it to, and if it's virii, make SURE that they can't spread online or onto any computer you don't have permission to access! Yes, I AM TELLING you to do this.
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
