Yes, because he wants to make sure the "fake" virus he uses for the removal exercise doesn't contain some hidden, actually damaging, payload.
Someone has already suggested the EICAR test file, which is ideal. It pops up a message box, and is easy to remove. He can add links the various windows startup files, the registry, he can go old school and call it from a batch file, and he's safe in the knowledge that he's in no danger of hosing his systems.

Not sure bone glue would help with any of those. Maybe with some fractures in shorter bones, or used in conjunction with / replacement of intramedullary rods.
Fraud and identity theft are the same thing, and should not be differentiated.
They both involve one person convincing another entity that they are someone other than they really are, and obtaining a benefit through that deception. In no way should the liability be on the person whose identity being used in any way. "Identity Theft" is just another way for big business to say "We gave your stuff away to someone who wasn't you, but we don't want to accept responsibility." No, not the case. You should have been sure that the person you were dealing with was me, and that's the only way to look at this. Identity Theft is not real, it's just fraud with spin.

Getting the populace to constantly watch and be suspicious of each other was the last item off the checklist for our favourite Orwellian dystopia to become reality.
"Good stuff. You're assistance in this inquiry will go in your favour. Now, I noticed when the computer booted up that the system you used was called TrueCrypt. We happen to know that this has a "hidden volume" functionality. We didn't find anything on your main volume, so we'd like the password to the hidden encrypted volume." "I don't have a hidden volume." "Ah, now you're not being helpful again. This won't look good."
Plausible deniability, in this case, isn't enough. You'd need proof you didn't have a hidden volume, or you'd spend your life in contempt of court. I know it sucks, but that's how it's worded.

Bad analogy. The manufacturer is not shutting off your car. The toll-road operator is telling you to leave and not come back until you fix your oil leak.
Bad analogy. The toll road operator is telling you can't drive you car on the road, so you can't get it back home where you have all the tools required to fix the job yourself. Instead, he tells you he runs a repair service which is chargeable and only after you've proven your car is not leaking oil anymore (can't drive it on the road, remember?) you can't drive it on the road.
They're not mutually exclusive, they just have a finite amount of money to throw at them both. More money on the script means less money on the effects.
Remember that by making a script complex, you limit your audience to those who are capable of surmising by themselves, instead of having opinions smashed into their face repeatedly with small words and diagrams. Yet, that's the type of people who would spend the money to sit with 300 people of questionable cleanliness eating overpriced popcorn and drinking flat over-icy sugary beverages, all to watch Angelina Jolie get shot at by some henchmen and fight on top of a train.
I have surround sound and a large screen on my computer, never mind the living room! I don't need to go to the cinema, ever. I don't make big movie companies any money by seeing box-office hits, so they don't make movies I would watch. It's just economics.
You can make an educated guess. In the past three decades, compare the amount spent on preventing one type of illegal death against the amount spent on preventing terrorism, and then calculate from that the value per death over the period you're looking at. If the amount spent on preventing, say, drunk driving is comparable to the amount spent per death on preventing terrorism, I'd say that the cost is justified (at least monetarily; This isn't about the ethics of the enhanced border policies). If they are disproportionate, I'd say that there's something going wrong.
I'm willing to bet on the latter. In fact, I'm willing to bet everything I own on it. Want to take that bet?
You may be thinking of nebulae. They are clouds of dust and gas.
However, on such a scale as this, who is to say this isn't similar to two clouds colliding? I would hazard a guess that on some microscopic level there is definitely a sound of water droplets colliding when two clouds merge. On a universal scale, I'd say two galaxies colliding would be quite close, proportionally, to that sound.
In 2007, 460 people were killed in accidents involving drivers who were intoxicated No murder, no drug related deaths, no falling from buildings, suicides, running with scissors, or any other cause of death. Driving while drunk killed just under 9 times as many people in 2007 than a carefully planned and coordinated terrorist attack on the London public transport network in 2005.
In fact, show me any statistic which justifies the costs incurred by our border agencies when compared to other causes of unlawful death in the UK. You can't pull out "We've not been attacked by any terrorists, so the measures work!" either. By the same justification, I've not gone and hacked apart several passers by in the street because Policing works. That's not the case; I've just not tried to attack anyone.

Having sat in a pub about 12 miles north of RAF Brize Norton while what I would guess as Tornado's few overhead fast enough to be difficult to track visually, I can tell you that jet engines sound awesome, even when trying to have a chat over a nice pint of good ale in a country pub.

I work with a young lady who has a tattoo which is supposed to mean "One who enjoys herself" in Japanese.
I discovered, much to my amusement, that the word for "enjoys" can also mean "pleases".

If you drive your Jaguar sports car like I drive my Hyundai, you absolutely can compare them.
Then again, you don't buy a twin-turbine 205mph sports car to drive 6 miles to your workplace and back every day. You buy a 1.4 Hyundai for that...

Jet engines always sound awesome.
My little 1.4 Hyundai does 41 mpg! That's rubbish!
Then again, my 1.4 Hyundai doesn't do 0-60 in 3.4 seconds, 205mph, or have twin gas turbine engines. That's pure awesome.
Apologies, 28%. It's obvious what I got wrong.
Average efficiency of the internal combustion engine averages 18%
Your lowest efficiency single cycle gas turbine is already a 72% improvement. That's pretty awesome.
