How Many Computer Viruses Have There Been Since The Computer/internet Was Invented?

Answer Question

    Hard to say, some sources say less than 200 in the wild, others say more. Some count variants others don't, and I'm sure that as time passes some get removed from virus dat files as being unnecessary any more. Also, more and more, malware and adware is also being added to virus databases so they can be caught and removed as well.
