    Get a kid, infect Windows Vista, win any computer game you want

    Virus the gameMicrosoft ex-co-president-to-be Jim Allchin brags to reporters about Windows Vista's impregnability:

    My son, seven years old, runs Windows Vista, and, honestly, he doesn't have an antivirus system on his machine. His machine is locked down with parental controls, he can't download things unless it's to the places that I've said that he could do, and I'm feeling totally confident about that. That is quite a statement.

    INDEED IT IS, ALLCHIN. Tell you what. First kid under 13 who infects a retail version of Windows Vista (with parental controls on) with a virus and sends us an exclusive video, wins a PC game of their choice.

    Contest rules apply. E-mail tips@valleywag.com with your video, using the subject line "I infected Vista."
