Default are swedes retarded or am I just mentallyhandicapped when it comes to comps?

I'm just trying to get some clarification here, because I'm confused... On this swedish cheating site, you know, a cheat database for SP games.. There's also a forum and a little bit of a community aswell.. And I saw this one post on the forum where it said: 'Virus!! :'o'
And he talked a little about his problem. And this 19 year old guy thats been sitting in front of the forums too much reading what all the swedes say about comps (Which is for the most part not true because swedes arent too bright, atleast, their not as bright as they think they are.

And well he posted a link to this swedish site where they talked a little bit about viruses, and basically what he said in the post was that no virus can ever be removed using a anti virus program. What he said was something like this: The only way to get rid of a virus is to format your computer. When a virus get into your computer, it has total control of your computer, including your anti virus program, so if you get a virus into your computer, your screwed unless you format. Because the virus controls everything. To me this sounds a bit off.

I thought this was pretty hilarious aswell, this is a little pic they added to clear things up for the bunheads:



What theyr trying to say is that it gets in between the applications and the OS, and from there takes control of the computer.. What the ****? What's this forum for if it's true??!

Sometimes...All the time.. I'm ashamed of beeing swedish, and that's true..

Not to worry, sometimes being half-scandinavian has made me want to jump off a cliff as well

A virus really isn't any different than any other program on a computer. Sure it can do weird things to your computer but as far as taking complete control of everything, that is an ignorant statement. A virus is easily stopped once you manage to kill any processes it has created (and making sure they stay closed). A virus is no use if it isn't running in the background and once you stop it, it is just a matter of cleaning up the files it had created. A firewall helps too since viruses often try to download spyware and make you comp even more messed up, a firewall would keep it isolated.

there shouldn't be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?
