Ask your parents why the feel the need to lie to you to get you to stop playing a game.

WTF??? Where did he come up with that load of bull... Is he running his network through his pc, or through a router?

They are just making this up since it's not possible. I have my ps2 and pc connected and running and run my viruse checks every week with nothing.

I bet your mom or dad downloaded some junk got the virus and are using you and FFXI as the scap goat.

Tell your dad to go take some pc courses for dummies^^ j/k sounds like he knows very little about computers.

Bring up the internet history and cookies and ask him in front of your mom about all the **** sites he's visited. Perhaps the virus came from there.

:)


If he's like everyone elses Dad, I'm 95% sure he gave in to his curiousity.


End result is, that FFX1/downloading patches and such will not give you a virus.

UNLESS u downloaded unsafe 3rd party programs like the ambiguously gay trio put up then yeah you should have FFX1 taken away. Now go to your room! j/k ;0

Unfortunately, your parents are going to believe whatever they want to believe. If they think FF got the virus, so be it. If they just want to use it as a scape goat...well, so be that too.

Either way you are kind of screwed, and no advice from anyone on this board is going to change thier mind.

Even though, having FF on a PS2 causing a virus outbreak on a PC is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard...there really isn't a lot you can do at the moment.

They just want you off the PS2 and mowing the lawn or something.
You know how parents are...
