Uhuh, so you would suspect them of what?

Hmm, so let's see, you download several or a couple different torrents from
unknown sources and because they are the same then that means they are
Okay....
Perhaps you haven't been out on the net long enough to realize that the
SAME files and programs are constantly passed around the net... and that
the original one that everyone is passing around is or may be corrupt or
infected... so what does two illegally obtained copies of that same
file/torrent prove?

|
| Again Mr. Stupid, you scan it with the system you're using to download
| it. I feel like I'm talking to a child here.
Uhm, that's the one you installed one of the torrent programs on right,,,
the one that is used to transfer other illegal files around with,,, the one
that has no firewall, no antivirus, and is being constantly accessed by
other computers while you're connected via the torrent program???
That system over which you have failed to ensure is NOT infected AND HAVE
NO CONTROL ....

Uhuh, and that system is what, XP or VISTA, which has already accessed the
drive PRIOR to your scan ....

Uhm, suspect of what, you're claiming torrents are safe to download,,, you
posted the links didn't you ???

|
| Yes, Mr. Moron, I have, but not before submitting the files to VT.
Uhuh, and that showed what, based upon what criteria???
|

Let's see, think a hacker can find that same info on Microsoft???
|
| Hey, tell you what.
|

Nah, we still know where and how to obtain legal copies... post that crap
in one of the proper forums for that stuff ...

Let's see, seems you already made some numbnuts comment like that before,,,
AND I already advised you that I have frequented those style of sharing
services .... seems I also already advised you that one need not engage in
illegal activity when doing so ...

TTTSTSTSTSTSSSKKSKSKSKSK,,,, hehehehehehe,,,, so let's see, now you're an
expert in viruses, Trojans, and the like ... what else are you going to
claim WITHOUT checking the facts...

Adobe products, Microsoft products,,, any others you're willing to publicly
admit to stealing ...

Uhuh, so you're such a conscientious person, you ALWAYS follow a set
routine for those checks,,, with that illegal copy of the OS you have
right??

No, actually I just got you to publicly admit to conspiracy to commit
illegal acts, engagement in criminal conspiracy, attempted distribution of
illegal software, and several other felonies and/or civilly prosecutable
activities...
Moreover, is that organization aware that they can also be charged in
conjunction with your illegal activities if done on or thorough their system
or service??? Are they also aware that, as you have readily admitted to
criminal activity, that you may be engaged in such at their place of
business? NOTE: you said "we".

Nah, doesn't bug my ass,,, but I am a Peoples' Counsel,, would you expect
me to suggest you engage in criminal acts???

Actually, if you continue to publicly post and admit to this type of
criminal activity, it may be someone else swinging the 2x4, but it will look
more like steel bars.
