Can someone tell me wtf is wrong with my computer? ._.

[Tyeforce]

I'll tell you what's wrong; it's Windows!

But yeah, VIRUS!! (I'm glad I don't get them. ^_^)

Cool Tyeforce that iMac computers don't get viruses. ::cough:: They do. ::cough:: Also read the below and also I can tell you how many Trojans I have I probably have 60 [estimate] and Norton had fixed them in a click of a button. Also for your particular problem is viruses or mouse problems.

Note: If you're running a virtual PC on your Apple Macintosh, because it's emulating Microsoft Windows, it can become infected with Windows viruses and you should be running an antivirus protection program on it. In addition an Apple Macintosh can serve as a virus carrier, meaning that a virus could be stored on an Apple Computer yet not infect it. But if that computer were to connect to a network or a user was to forward an infected e-mail to a Windows computer that could become infected.

Reread that again. It says it can get get infecting if you're running WINDOWS on it. Only the emulated Windows will be infected. Your Mac OS X will be completely fine. And yes, Macs can carry viruses and pass them on, but the virus won't affect the Mac at all. There are a few (VERY few) viruses out there that can affect Mac, but they're very, very rare. The chances of getting one are slim to none.

Yes but Wii gets none.

This is FALSE. Wii can very well get viruses. I know a couple people who have totally bricked their Wii due to getting a virus

How can a Wii get a virus from the Internet Channel? It's just a browser. The Wii isn't a computer...

How does a computer get a virus when all it does is use a browser to connect to actual webpages?

It is the same thing. The Wii is capable of downloading files. This leaves the door open for viruses. Even if it does only use a browser to connect, it is obtained the same way any other virus is obtained.

No, the Wii isn't capable of downloading files... Not from the Internet Channel, at least.

 

[DirtyD]

Yes it is.

It also automatically downloads various cookies, temp internet files and ect. Just like every other browser. Malware/spyware and other viruses can sometimes hide within these files and cookies. Which is why it is recommended to delete these files from any browser often.

Forgot about that. But still... I've never heard of a Wii getting a virus from the Internet Channel... You sure it wasn't from Homebrew or something?

 

[DirtyD]

Yes I'm positive. You are able to get viruses via the internet channel. Yes it is possible to get viruses onto your Wii thru the homebrew channel, but I know one of the people didnt have the HBC and contracted a virus
