Perfect Weapon, Perfect Excuse
Yes it is the perfect weapon. I suspect that most users will find it coming back to them from tech land as the perfect excuse. i.e. if you don't know what ails a system the problem will not be a self erasing virus. The cure will be to erase your hard drive and reload everything at $90 per hour.

Yes, I know I'm being cynical. However, the above senario is already too prevalent and it will just get worse.
