Okay Okay... Calm Down. By the looks of things youre obviously
uneducated when it comes to computers and shouldnt be attempting any
kind of virus removal.
The Ethernet connection CANNOT store anything, its like saying the a
virus could be transfered through the Telephone. Ethernet is
similar, it is only a wire, and no data can "live" inside it.
Ethernet Networks ARE NOT STORAGE DEVICES and THERE IS NO WAY for
the virus to remain "in" a cable. A computer virus and a human virus
are 100% different things. Totally different. Its like comparing a
Car and a Wet Fish - totally pointless.
And it has nothing to do with "intercourse", or sex.
I believe an attachment to an e-mail, or something on a downloaded
file, could have a virus application, but you'd have to give it
permission to act out ... give it your Admin Password, and say "Go
Ahead" ... and even then, I'm not so sure OS X would allow it to reek
havoc ... Windows machines, yes ... but not OS X ones.
And like I said, it has nothing to do with sex. The analogy might be
fun for some, but I have always found it offensive.
