Something has occurred to me, and it could be big.
I'll start from the beginning.
A few days back, me and two of my classmates were talking about viruses. I won't bother you with the details, but we got to the people who make the viruses, who are(as you know) mostly teenage-to-college-age males. These virus makers also have to have antiviruses for their viruses.
So there was a certain virus maker, when he got caught, he could not make an antivirus to stop his worm.
Now that got me thinking.
What if all these antivirus companies(Symantec, Kaspersky, Nod32, McAfee, and such) are secretly in league with some virus makers to ensure that their products are always in demand. This sounds outrageous yes I know, but maybe these companies' antivirus software is so good is because they are secretly in a deal with these guys, who give them antidotes for the viruses.
They work with the hackers on order to ensure that there are plenty of viruses going around, because if people stopped making viruses(not gonna happen, I know that too) then these guys would go out of business.
Could it be true?

oh yea and give me a link to that post
This is the post. I didn't put it in the forums.
It's understood that anti-virus companies make viruses. I mean, why would so many viruses appear periodically? It's sort of a blackmail situation: you don't pay, you can't get rid of the virus.
"WTF? I wish Nathan Kuruna would contact ME! And I'm also a talented Flash author, you just wait and see!
Just you wait, NG! I'll show you what this werewolf can do!"
i just wanted to thank you for making me laugh so hard at that.
only a true man-wolf could uncover this vast conspiracy

omfg wtf yes i know its true most everybody should will or does think of this and yes im sure its true that some or almost all virus protection companies do pay people to make viruses so then in return people buy there virus protection and they get more money then spent.
and jesus people buy a mac computer they DO NOT , ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY DO NOT GET VIRUSES AND IF SO IM NOT SURE BUT FIXED FOR FREE.

Thanks for the advice, but I'm too broke to buy one at the moment.
