   Yes, viruses are programs.  Someone writes a program, claims it is a =
virus and that this proves something, something no one said otherwise, =
and something that no one with half a brain every doubted.  You bow down =
to him as some sort of god.  Who do you think the idiots are in the =
scenario?  I'll give you a clue.  You are one of them.

           Why the topic change?  Are you interesting in public =

                   Your key fragment below is "whoever was saying it =
wasn't possible".  No body was saying this.  It's a programming =
language.  By design you can write programs.  You don't gain credibility =
by making bogus claims then arguing against them.
