Your paragraph about deflation and GDP muddles a few different issues and distracts from your main point. Even if prices drop due to productivity, there is still good reason for monetary inflation, and population growth should drive total G

Re the conclusion: to protect yourself, don't run an OS that will silently install software just because you clicked on a blue link in a program published by the OS vendor. Steve Ballmer should be jailed as an accessory for allowing this.
