That reminds me of reading Norton AntiVirus’ compendium on all the different viruses it blocks, which include really old ones that no longer exist and did almost nothing.

There was one virus that simply opens NotePad and writes “Adolf Hitler.”

    How will I know when it's built up enough of an immunity to take on the big boys? Does it stop letting me download the little ones?

    Virus immunity is the 4th layer of protection, often referred to as a Factor.

    You can press Alt + F4 (for Factor 4) to see it's current strength.

    Too specific. I got a special keyboard that gives me the godlike power to fix everything on my PC. The "Del" key was relabeled to better fit its new all-powerful purpose, but for safety I need to use a couple other modifier keys with it to avoid accidental activations. The special godlike power key combo is CTRL-ALT-DEL"SMITE."

    The more trojans you download the more suspicious your firewall becomes though, eventually it will become so jaded it will block all traffic and declare your pc an isolationist state, so be careful.

    I imagine all the small viruses fighting off the big virus so they can keep the keylogger running in peace.
