Piracy on the Cyber seas

It is a basic fact of life that you either have to protect your PC from Virus and Spyware infestation, or abstain from internet usage these days. Even then, with the most up to date of virus data bases, It is practically impossible to prevent such piracy and intrusion. I just wish I knew why these "infestations" have to occur in the first place.

I, like so many others I know, am extremely vexed by it all. I can understand protests against the system and frustration incurred as a result thereof, but whilst freedom of expression & speech are constructive and vital to meaningful coexistence, out & out sabotage is something else entirely. Why should one man's fears, frailties, foibles, or lack of common decency have to affect so many?

Is it a case of chronic boredom? Do these miscreants have so little to occupy their time that they must destroy anything and everything remotely decent? Are these assaults on our cyber world an act of terrorism? Spite? Revolt? Experimentation? Such hatred of humankind is sad and frankly puzzling to me.

It is so annoying, I feel like screaming and tearing my hair out like some raving lunatic.
It is a crying shame! I don't know about you, but I have almost given up on checking my emails, and I rarely surf the web beyond my safety zone -my own little "cyber community" as it were. It is a great pity, as there is a great deal to be gained by reaching out to kindred souls and to the tremendous amount of great material on offer out there.

I realize I have just become a potential target of sorts, by posting this, but I doubt if very many visit this blog anyway, and I just felt the need to express my frustration.
I'm absolutely certain that I'm merely echoing a popular sentiment at any rate.

I just wish there was a way to stop all this Piracy on the Cyber seas.

I welcome any and all responses.
