Loophole Or A Conspiracy?

Virus, Hmmm I am sure that you have heard this word before. I am not talking about the living virus like an influenza virus. I am talking about the computer virus. According to the New York Times, Microsoft, Compaq, and Hewlett Packards computers are at a great risk. I wonder why we the consumer, are in this position? I cannot come up with one straight answer. However, I have a theory that maybe Microsoft is behind all of this. As you may know, Bill Gates (CEO, Chairman) of Microsoft has a business marketing agenda of his own. Bill Gates stated that he should sell his products cheap and affordable for the average consumer. After he sells the product to the public, the consumer will have no other choice but to purchase and use the Microsoft products. This is where Bill comes in for the kill. Bill is going to increase the price for the other products and cash in on the profits. Why do you ask, because majority of the computers in the world utilizes one or more of Microsoft’s products and they have no choice but to use the other Microsoft’s products because if everyone is using it and you will be out of the loop. The New York Times article reported that the software security breaches has been verified. This means that if one hacker has the knowledge of hacking through this loophole, then we are in great danger because everything you can imagine is stored in the computers and large databases. This article just proves my point on Microsoft’s power to influence and danger our personal everyday lives. Did you know that there is a secret imbedded program called ” The Hall Of Tortured Souls”? Yes, there is that secret program imbedded in the Microsoft’s Excel 95. This program was written and implemented by the programmers of Microsoft. If Microsoft can do this sneaky program in all of their programs, the question of what other secretly imbedded programs are their in the other Microsoft’s software. What can these secret program do? This scares me as I write this paper because I am writing with Microsoft’s Word program. Can somebody be reading what I am writing or hacking through my system as I write? It looks like we all have to wait until they come up with a fix patch program to address these security issues. In the mean time, Bill Gates is just getting richer and richer by his marketing agenda as we all become assimilated.
