You have just received the Amish Virus. Since we do not have electricity nor computers, you are on the honor system. Please delete all of your files.

Thank thee.

I don't rememeber where I got it, but I've had it for quite awhile. We have an Amish settlement in the eastern part of Iowa (Amana Colonies). :) And the really rough part is, Norton's can't even detect it or get rid of it. :)

There's a very simple way to remove it...plug your computer in. This is one of those "nasty" viruses that survive without electricity. It doesn't know how to handle watts and volts so it removes itself under those circumstances. Trust me, it works.

Oh-Oh, then you are in trouble. You are the type of computer user that this virus was made for. I think this might work though. I haven't tested it yet, but I have met many Amish people. I know how they write their viruses, so I think we can fix this.

Go out and find an old toaster (or anything with a power cord that you can take the cord off of). Next, make sure the battery is OUT when you do this next part. You will need to tape (I would use duct tape) the power cord to the back of the computer. Now put the battery back in and the virus will think you are using REAL electricity (because of the power cord) and will uninstall itself. Don't worry about plugging the cord in anywhere, it just looks at the back of the computer for any kind of electrical connection. Just to be safe though, go ahead and lay the cord near an outlet somewhere until the virus is gone.

Let me know if this works. It might be useful to other laptop owners as this vicious virus spreads.

Too late, I threw it in a pile of dead leaves and doused it in gasoline. Then, because it was a Toshiba, the battery spontaneously ignited and ended the short life ot the computer.
Boofo
21 Jul 2002, 02:09
I forgot to mention, that is the number two way to get rid of it if the first one doesn't work.

Also, I wish you had mentioned it was a Toshiba. That is the one laptop the virus has no effect on. If it can't spell it, it can't infect it.

I think Neo was referring to all the posts that just contain smilies or the banana. This is the Lounge and I don't consider anything in here really spam. Just having a good time is all.

Well, look at it this way, at least the virus is gone and you know who to get rid of it if you ever get it again. A lesson learned, if nothing else. ;)

Why lie about there being a virus and telling newbie computer users to delete all there files while you could just make a program that well force restart the users computer and enter in format C: /y (I think that's the command for force yes) and force format the users harddrive :bandit:

Manually delete all your files?

Oh, wait...

Dammit!

Since I am an honorable guy, I must now delete all my files...

I think Ahmed must have some Amish ancestory somewhere then.

Better yet. Go to your nearest freeway, lay down, and take a nap. That should rid yourself of the nasty bugger. ;)
Boofo

I can't believe how violent a little virus can make everyone. This is a virus that was probably written in crayon in the first place.

BTW: Since they don't have electricity, does that mean they have to watch television by candlelight?

It must be worse than I feared...

If an Amish virus that doesn't even use electricity can cause this much horror and confusion, then we as a human race (and yes I am also including you in the category DrkFusion although there have been rumors (mostly started by myself and filburt1) to the contrary) are in very big trouble.
