After download, and unzipped, there is a utility which will burn the MBR on a floppy for clean boot regardless of what your current OS is. If sabotage software is going to function, it hasta be inserted into the OS kernel or some other executable. Only when code is executed can the sabotage software piggy back on and run. If the OS is open source, then there is a copy of that kernel which you can download. You cant get that with winx.
Open source is out there, chapter, verse, and byte.
Because it is all out there for peer review, it hasta be laid out in a rational fashion. When you see that shit, you have some clue as to what they were doing, but you dont have a blueprint. All that crap takes up room, and you are never quite sure that a glitch of some kind might not fire up a tool, and cut a hole thru the floor. Running a virus scanner over a mess like that is delusional. It hasta look at every piece of garbage left laying around, and compare that with a database of shapes.
