Yep, incredible as it seems, something as expensive and hi tech as the ISS has computers infected by a virus

I have good ol AVG free antivirus protecting my system, with Windows Updates on :) Costs nothing.

Imagine NASA getting an error message saying "The ISS Life Support System has stopped working, Windows is searching for a solution for the problem, we apologise for any inconvenience"

Oh, thank god! For a minute there I thought you meant the Ice In Space computers.

Serve those astronaut buggers right. Illegal downloads, I bet. And no doubt stealing my wireless broadband to do it with whenever they're whizzing overhead. Better reset the password...

If they stayed away from those porno sites they wouldn't have those problems 6 months in a space station with no direct female contact not hard to figure out how this happened. No direct internet connection they a bloody satellite what a load of cow manure.
