He devises a daring plan to defeat the invaders, by uploading a computer virus (Sune might be able to explain how it worked) to bring down not only the mothership but also all the other alien spaceships. The unlikely team of ace fighter pilot, Hiller, and boffin David Levinson (Goldblum) sit side by side in the little craft and set out on a trip that becomes a buddy movie in miniature leading to the conclusion we have all been waiting for.

Sure thats easy to explain - the aliens obviously (despite being physically and mentally totally different) created computer hardware with exactly the basic instructions as one of our companies computers (which one our hero brilliantly deduced). When they were done with that they created the same alphabet as us, the same programming languages as ours, the same operating systems as ours (with the same bugs and weaknesses) and then they openend a communication channel to us using a protocol known to us. Thus it was quite easy for our hero to write a virus and just upload it.
