I guess there's a reason that you shouldn't post at 2 AM... Sometimes you leave out important details. David, that’s true and the post has been updated.

David might be right that the slide is out of context alone, but it's still funny. IMHO that was the best talk I heard yesterday!

This slide is pretty abrupt without the context of the rest of the presentation. The point of the slide was to talk about points of weakness in the computer system and viruses taking advantage of those weaknesses. So for those of you who missed the presentation, this slide was a comparison of the physical vulnerabilities which HIV takes advantage of and the network vulnerabilities that web viruses take advantage of.
