How should people who created viruses be punished?

[APW 0]

I don't know if this is my lucky week or what.

On Thursday night I picked up a trojan and spent 6-hours getting rid of it (because it hid in my system recovery files). Friday was good. No problems all day. Then about 45-minutes ago, I go to Netbroadcaster to watch a movie online and pick up a virus the second I get to their homepage, which my Norton AV caught and deleted immediately.

 

I can't tell you how much I'd like to get my hands around the neck of the sorry no-good %$#@!@!&% that have nothing better to do with their time than sit around inventing new ways to cripple or destroy other people's property.

If I loose my PC,I cannot replace it. That's it,my time online would be over just like that!

The last time I lost a PC it took me nearly 3-years to get a new one....

 

At the moment I'm so disgusted, and to be honest afraid to surf anywhere anymore, that I'm considering just going to the handful of sites I know and trust from now on, and never ever looking for anything new again.
