thparker writes "As part of the Media Center release discussed previously, Bill Gates had an interview with USA Today. Best quote: 'Q: Speaking of security, Internet Explorer has had well-publicized holes... Gates: Understand those are cases where you are downloading third-party software.' Well now we know -- these problems have all been our own fault." Any counterexamples?

    Hey, just so you know, 'viri' is the incorrect word in this context. I know it's odd, but the English language is full of these exceptions. The correct plural of 'virus' is 'viruses'.

    See here for more info (like what the meaning of the word 'viri' is).
