    H5N1 is pretty annoying.

    Your face is annoying
    The messenger is standing at the gate
    Ready to let go
    Ready for the crush
    Too late for whispers
    Too late for the blush
    The past is mercy
    When the future is aglow

    oh I'd say viruses.

    good anti-viruses are easy to use and don't kill your cpu! (and are free)

    You might want to change your opinion of annoying Viruses because probably more than half of the time, it's just Malware or Spyware.

    Virus Protection. You want to know why? Because when you figure out that Spyware Doctor blocks and disables WINDOWS EXPLORER, you kind of wonder if it's all worth it?

    Explorer.exe is what, oh lets just say, lets you use the Taskbar, the Start Menu, Open a Folder, Use the Desktop, and basically LIVE.

    xD that's why you do this:
    1) use firefox
    2) install avg or avast if you feel like it, but only if you're in the habit of opening e-mail attachments.
    3) win

    it's such a simple and very successful formula. I really really really do not understand why no one seems to want to follow it.

    Firefox + Avast is pretty painless.

    Then again, it's also very good, which means that virii aren't exactly painful for me either. xD

    but you'll still be minus a SPYWARE DOCTOR, and that's a big gain for you apparently.

    Viruses. If you don't fail at life, any problems you encounter with virus protection can be solved by either a) smacking it around with your Google-fu, or b) going to the Help forum and pestering Face. The first step in solving most virus-related problems is running a virus scan.

    Also, the dictionary says "virii" isn't a word.

    Well we wouldn't need annoying virus protection with out those troublesome virus', so I would say VIRUS.
