제가 들은 가장 웃긴 것은, 제가 한 저녁 파티에 참석했을 때 였어요. 한 여성분이 제가 컴퓨터 보안 일을 한다는걸 들었어요. 그 분은, 자신의 컴퓨터가 바이러스에 감염됐는데 그 바이러스가 자신에게도 옮는 건 아닌지 걱정스럽다고 제게 말한 적이 있었어요. (웃음) 저는 의사가 아니지만 그 분에게, 그런 일은 거의 일어나지 않는다고 안심시켜드렸죠. 그래도 조금 더 걱정을 덜고 싶으면, 컴퓨터를 사용할 때 얇은 고무 장갑을 끼시라고 했습니다. 그러면 옮을 일은 절대 없을거라구요.
The most ridiculous thing I ever heard is, I was at a dinner party, and a woman heard that I work in computer security, and she asked me if -- she said her computer had been infected by a virus, and she was very concerned that she might get sick from it, that she could get this virus. (Laughter) And I'm not a doctor, but I reassured her that it was very, very unlikely that this would happen, but if she felt more comfortable, she could be free to use latex gloves when she was on the computer, and there would be no harm whatsoever in that.
