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, that's with Windows, 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.
Microsoft need someone else to clean their fault on their software but they still want us to pay for their software. Sometimes I don't understand why my university make collaboration with Microsoft if they have so many security issues

In a world without walls and fences - who needs windows and gates?!
Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for.
it's a karma, when you doing something for profit and not for good deeds, you'll face problem.
