About The Virus Must Be Stopped

It all started when two self-confessed internet addicts/geeks bumped heads and said “Eureka, lets start a blog”. One was a university student with lots of spare time and the other was an IT technician again with lots of spare time.

 

One day at the students house, they stumbled upon (pun intended) a virus, this virus was the same one that puts the crappy soaps on the TV in your grandma’s living room, that wants you to put bigger locks on your doors - Thanks Bill, that tells you “Don’t do this, don’t do that and don’t do the other”. The same that makes those shows like “Pop Idol” and “Dancing on Ice”. The same virus that…well, you get the picture.

 

The student tried his best but couldn’t figure out how to get rid of it on his own. The technician struggled on his own. What could they do? The only conclusion that they both came too after literally minutes of deliberation was that “The Virus Must Be Stopped.”
