People who do not have a PC will not understand this - because they do not have registry keys. The "Key Master?" (think that was what he was called) strikes me as the all-in-one crack generator (that hacks entrance to programs) or the registry key editor.

Smith is now a virus. Well that's a duh. His integrity as a program was compromised at some level, so he malfunctions, and becomes other.

As Smith is a virus, he is currently rampaging through the matrix (like a farking trojan) altering other system files, programs, and enjoying himself (Smith's face is the face of every computer viruss. I see it in my dreams).

Smith has screwed, no doubt, the intergrity of Matrix 6.0. Neo started it by screwing with Smith.

The architect reminds me of Norton Systemworks. He diagnoses problems, tries to eradicate viruses, suggests updates, blahblahblah. However, there are always things that Norton can't handle, due primarily to problems with the farking operating system.

So it's time to upgrade to a new operating system. No doubt the architect has taken all of Neo's data into consideration, as it IS Neo that inspires Smith to go corrupt, and also, as a side note, all the other cute little programs that have been running resident snarkingup system resources (the Oracle and her ilk) to go apeshiat.

So you can a - reboot into safe mode and try to fix the problem that way, or b - give the fark up and accept the current limitations of your operating system and upgrade. The architect makes the choice.

Remember- the Oracle was also going on about how some programs do as they wish - no doubt upgrading themselves silently like good little pieces of friggin' spyware, keeping one step ahead of ad-aware. But perhaps this is an oversimplification of what these programs are actually up to.

It was all just obvious to me. I started laughing my ass off towards the end, because peridically, crap like you see in the matrix code goes flashing through my system, and something usually stops it (Norton, ad-aware - whatever). If I don't stay on top of the integrity of my system, Zion starts forming in my system resources. Usually whenever I do an operating system upgrade, things go back to normal.

Ad when the system gets upgraded, all the pieces fall back into place again, (especially if I install it on a clean drive), registry farks dissapear (for a while anyway) and a clean partition forms...

Zion is a friggin' partition.
