Ah, the digital Wild West of the early 2000s, when Limewire turned average middle schoolers into cyber criminals. Nothing says "I'm a tech rebel" quite like downloading a single MP3 that somehow infected your family's beige Windows 98 machine with 37 different viruses. Parents spent $2000 on that computer so you could do homework, and there you were, sacrificing it to the peer-to-peer gods for a corrupted copy of "In Da Club" that was actually just Bill Clinton's voice saying "I did not have sexual relations with that woman." The family computer never stood a chance.
