Is Windows a Virus?

No, Windows is not a virus. Here's what viruses do:

1.They replicate quickly - okay, Windows does that.

2.Viruses use up valuable system resources, slowing down the system as they do so - okay, Windows does that.

3.Viruses will, from time to time, trash your hard disk - okay, Windows does that too.

4.Viruses are usually carried, unknown to the user, along with valuable programs and systems. Sigh... Windows does that, too.

5.Viruses will occasionally make the user suspect their system is too slow (see 2) and the user will buy new hardware. Yup, Windows does that, too.

Until now it seems Windows is a virus but there are fundamental differences: Viruses are well supported by their authors, are running on most systems, their program code is fast, compact and efficient and they tend to become more sophisticated as they mature.

So Windows is not a virus.

It's a bug

Speaking of real viruses:

Internet encounters with a new KMeth virus which visits Google AdSense links and devastates the customers' accounts.

The virus replicates via Yahoo! Messenger, posting text messages containing a link to the infected web-page to the chaps on your contact list.

KMeth substitutes User's home page with a page full of context ads on one of the most expensive words - mesotelioma (some rare disease or such). That's why the links are visited by very high-income lawyers. One click on the link costs from $4 ti $13.
