Attack of the Dreaded Virus(es)
I was calmly going about my own computer business yesterday when this McAfee dialog box popped open warning me that a drive was infected. Now I've been skittish ever since some stupid virus attacked my computer a few weeks ago because of which the computer sorta died and had to be brought back to life after a lot of worrying and basically I was just cut off from the online world for a couple of weeks. So naturally I freaked out. Ran a virus scan on the infected drive. Sat back and watched McAfee detect a total of 406 viruses. In one drive. I didn't freak out. I just (calmly) wondered how the computer hadn't exploded with so many viruses in it!
Then came the dealing with the viruses part. For some reason they refused to be cleaned. Just wanted to be zapped into oblivion. And either I can't understand McAfee or it can't understand me because I ended up deleting all 406 viruses manually. One by one by freakin one. I'm sure it has something to do with adjusting the settings and me being technologically challenged; but I'm still blaming McAfee! After all AVG didn't give me this much trouble. Of course my computer died on AVG's watch so it can't get too cocky either.
I really think there's some sort of conspiracy going on. The computer working against me on McAfee's orders. How else do you explain 406 viruses and me having to delete virtually everything? I won't be surprised if McAfee is trying to conquer the world, one computer at a time. If it's evil enough to make me delete every one one the 406 viruses individually, it's evil enough to harbour ambitions of world domination.

I can see the title : Viruses vs You!! :p
And I think there is a way to select all but I don't remember how.

all viruses are evil... all virus scans are evil-er... it's not a trade secret that each of them want's to rule the world... you should buy anti virus s/w now.. some are cheap.. 500 rs to 700 rs annually... i think it better than manually deleting viruses one by one by freakin one..

Tanuj obsessed much!? Yeah there was a way... but not a good one.
Rishi yeah I have McAfee but annoying little thing it is.
Karishma I'm glad my psychotic anti-virus program is amusing :P
