It doesn't always all the time, with 100% accuracy.
It fails, approximately 100 times a day. Sometimes you see and
sometimes you don't. Sounds like a Peter Paul Almond Joy OS,
heh? There's only one real reason for it too. It is Microsoft's
attempt to hide their major programming mistakes, etc.
Microsoft's purpose for it is as described above, because they know
that sometimes they let things slip out. And some of these things might
be viral infections, and if it happens and it's on a CD or DVD, the
people have proof. If it happens in the current way that it happens,
there is no real proof. Bit shifting occurs all the time in the downloading
process, every day you live, bits are shifted at least 10,000 times a day.
I just pulled that number out of my head because I see it happen a
couple half-a-dozen times a year. I'm confident that there are times it's
happens that no one really sees it.
For example, when you download a picture that has some shifted bits,
usually the problem isn't visible. On rare occasions it is visible.
Hope that helps.
