There were also bots in games which ruined things for the real players.. and chat bots that tried to get you to download/install software which was actually a virus. Oh and tons of viruses back then, nothing like today.

Bots in games...like aimbots...I don't remember being a serious problem. I played a shit ton of Quake and Quake 2 online. Maybe it was a big problem in other games, but I never noticed it.

Yeah there were lots of viruses, but McAfee was a decent program, and they had full versions of their software on their own FTP server that literally everybody knew the password to.
