There is so much money now in computer security, and so many companies making a profit, that it gives these security companies a self-interest in CREATING viruses and making people be insecure and feel insecure, without their security "solution".

I had that feeling. I do remember reading the first 30 pages of Kevin Trudeau's Natural Cures book, saying that money hungry pharmaceutical companies sell drugs with side effects, so they can make more money, and then when the drug taker gets sick, they take more drugs and then the cycle repeats.

I feel in the same way, security software corporations make viruses and accuse other people, so that the user can download or buy their software, which goes berserk and costs the PC user CAD$200 in repairs, wasting the user's money, and then the cycle repeats.
