Do Computers Get Sick? How Humans and Computers Fight Viruses

The lecture was done yesterday by Professor Robin May, Gresham Professor of Physic, and it's very cool. After watching it I have a question: will you ever dare not to take care of you, your computer and your smartphone? Watch it to its end and do answer.
 
Whether you are human or computer, viruses can ruin your day, so taking steps to avoid them is important. You should do that.

This lecture asks whether there are similarities between human immunity and computer immunity? Can we use discoveries in one system to help protect against infections in the other? Might we one day take our laptops for regular vaccinations, or run a ‘software update’ on our own immune systems to avoid an emerging pathogen?
