It wasn't a virus. For a really long time computer memory cost big money, so you used it very carefully. One way they saved memory was by using the last two digits of the year--"89" instead of "1989." On big computers, to save disk space they'll often dump data older than they need to use right now onto tape, then erase it. Mainframes are usually set up to do this. If dates had stayed two digits long, when the year became 2000 the computer would think new data was really, really old and just get rid of it for you instantly. Not good. To fix the problem, someone had to go into all those programs, change the date field length to four characters, then re-edit all the current data to read "1999" instead of "99." You've probably seen the "Macs have always been Y2K compliant" boast. It's true, and the reason it is, is Macs have always had a lot of memory. They could afford to use four-digit years because they always had the space to do it.
According to the experts at F-Secure, the "Y2K Virus" is just a misnomer given to the Y2K bug by media personnel who didn't completely understand the problem.

Sorry my last answer was wrong (AT). You can buy y2k from http://www.marineturbine.com/motorcycles.aspAT
Some words that rhyme with "Y2K" are "kayak," "payback," and "way back."
"Y2K" was the year 2000. A "Bugatti" is a car. Your question makes no sense.

Yes. All versions of Windows from Windows 95 on are or have patches to make them compliant with Y2K.
If Y2K was going to happen, it would have happened on January 1, 2000, so you're probably safe.
