Putting virus infected torrent on website doesn't work, you think you are the first with that idea? The website just remove them. That why anti-piracy organisation and other company aren't able to floud torrent website with fake and virus to discourage pirate, like they can do with program such as Limewire.

Did you miss the part where I said wait a week before it activates and then have it activate at random dates afterwards?
I said this for three reasons:
- People see the game, hear of no problems, and it spreads like wildfire (Spore already have over 3k downloads at the beginning of thread, how many does it have now?). A week later people then find out it has the virus and by then it's already on a lot of systems just waiting.
- This would cause confusion because people could download it without a problem and think they have the correct version. They would keep spreading that version and then it would all start again.
- People would become paranoid because you really never know if you have a safe or a waiting to explode version.

3. people's norton would be updated with the known virus (that or norton gets sued for not providing the service they are paid for), and you're prank is useless as pirates would just download a demo of norton to check it...
