US preacher finds demon-possessed PCs By 41 Thomas C Greene in Washington Published Friday 10th March 2000 16:19 GMT Forget about viruses and malicious hackers; Your home computer may be host to a demon, and you and your family may well come under its malevolent control, the Weekly World News reports. Demons are able to possess anything with a brain, from a chicken to a human being. And today's thinking machines have enough space on their hard drives to accommodate Satan or his pals, the paper reports. Only a PC built after 1985 has the storage capacity to house an evil spirit, the minister explained. The Georgia clergyman says he became aware of the problem from counseling churchgoers. To his horror, an artificial-intelligence program started spontaneously. The Reverend advises anyone suspecting that their computer is possessed to consult a clergyman, or, if the computer is still under warranty, to take it in for servicing.
