Digital hypochondria

A special type of hypochondria in which one has the constant and irrational fear that their computer is infected with a virus, despite multiple Anti-Virus programs repeatedly finding that nothing is wrong.

Those who suffer from this anxiety disorder are said to be digital hypochondriacs.

Jim: Look, if something was going on, Norton would have said.
Dwight: Shut up, Jim, I know something's wrong...
Jim: Look, your computer doesn't have a virus!
Dwight: Shut up!
Jim: You're have digital hypochondria. You need to see someone about it.
Dwight (ignoring): Come on, McAfee...finish the scan....
