I have a Macbook Pro 13' Late 2009 model and i have a friend who has the same machine. he was telling me that apple places a code in the root of OS that will literally short out your CPU the more you use your mac so that you can buy more of their products. He was successful in removing in. I asked for his advice and refused to aid me. So can anyone tell me how i can find this "kill code" and how to remove it.

Your friend is ridiculously wrong. There is no such thing. He refused to "aid" you because he has no idea what he's talking about.
 
It is a bi-triometric flux-generator, made by Fulcrum, a communist terrorist blockade, and it expands into a hammer and comes out of the so-called security lock hole and slashes onto the keyboard once you use your Mac more than 8.760 hours. I saw it happen with my iBook. It is not a nice sight, I tell you that.

I also have a 2009 MBP, the 17", which gets a bit more hours though, 11.455 to be exact, but I have already used 6.996 hour out of it. Therefore you should be still safe, unless you run your MBP 26/8.

Oh, THAT code! Yeah, now I remember! :D (passes out tinfoil hats, including one for the spinach cat!)

Spinach cat can help, if you carefully adjusts its position between keyboard and hammer. The tinfoil hat might be harmful though, to the cat, as spinach cats like their iron, and since they don't have rudimentary grammar knowledge, they consider tinfoil to be made of iron. But anyway, you can blame Olivia Williams for that. Topher should have made that device, the one that turns us into dolls, much, much earlier. Ah, how I miss Hanna.
 
Your friend is pulling your leg. No such code exists (which explains pretty obviously why he won't can't help you remove it).

The theory is full of bs.

However my old iPod photo was working fine, until I updated the software in iTunes (no actual noticeable need for it) and boom...no iPod Photo hard drive anymore, a nice paper weight memorabilia.

Couldn't you reset the iPod somehow?
 
The Mac in my sig disappeared into thin air earlier today when I said something bad about Apple :( Maybe the OP is on to something....:eek:
