I got curious — how did people even catch viruses on their computers? Was it something a friend sent? Or maybe they downloaded a cracked game or some shady program? Share your stories — would be interesting to read.

I only got infected once that I know of. I had trouble reading from a floppy disk and so I set scandisk running on it and went to get some lunch. When I came back there had been a short power out and when it came back on my machine had rebooted with the disk in it which ran on startup and infected the machine. Thankfully it was non-destructive and I was able to clean it out with tools I had on another machine.
