jackThis is pretty clever. I like the comments on 'British' and 'Ultima'. Several of the solutions seem self-contradictory.
I wonder how I'd have scored if I'd checked only the icons I knew what they were, not all that I recognised?
Viruses you suffer from, and their cures
Linux: Install the latest version of Microsoft Windows. Learn to love it.
Sci-fi:Stop wearing the stick-on ears.
Free BSD: The GPL isn't that bad really. Adopt a penguin at the zoo.
Junkfood: Eat some real food. Something which you can identify the source of every ingredient, not the point of manufacture.
BBCB: CTRL-Break, and get a real computer. Repeat: "Mode 7 was not a good thing."
Religion: Read "God's Debris" by Scott Adams (yes, the Dilbert guy)
8-Bit: Polygons, all the polygons you can get are not enough.
British: No need for cure. Benign virus.
Windows: Try MacOS X. It's based on UNIX, it has a smoother UI than Windows and it doesn't suck. As an extra feature the boxes look nice.
Politics: Stop caring!
Ultima: If you find one tell us.
Environmentalism: Consume more stuff! It's easier to buy new stuff than to recycle.
Viruses you might suffer from:
Gaming (60%): Life is not a game. Roll 3D6. On a 4 or more go out and do something with your life.
Amiga (80%): Gnome is better than workbench. BEOS is better than Amiga OS. The TV Modulator was a pain in the arse and an EXTERNAL power pack? I ask you. And it didn't have a built in MIDI port like some of its rivals.
UNIX (75%): Anything this old must be obselete. Go and install a nice modern operating system. I hear MSDOS has come a long way lately.
Computer Games (90%) Stop staring at the screen and get some fresh air. You should see a doctor about the RSI in your thumbs.
Hippyism (60%): Free love is passe and potentially dangerous, and patchouli smells like cat piss.
Macintosh (60%): Use a mouse with more than one button.
