I find all this discussion about time very interesting, but I'll save that discussion for another thread...

It is my personal view that if a hard drive or a whole computer was on fire in the real world, then certain bits of information would be destoryed, including programs such as Tron. Although couldn't the program just become corrupt, therefore inside the computer giving programs a disability of some sort.

In some cases, I suppose, when a corrupted program still functions somewhat normally and just starts having a bad habit of crashing, I'd say yes. So perhaps they end up getting dismembered/lose an eye, etc by whatever the disaster looks like on the inside (and have to hop around on one leg for the rest of their existence).
But I don't think it would look anything like normal corruption. Corruption as seen in 2.0 is merely data being tampered with by a software virus. Something like a fire is real-world physical damage being done to the computer and is usually not repairable.

Perhaps the "sleeping programs" we come across in the Alan's PC level of  are merely shortcuts that are seamlessly replaced by the actual programs when we activate them?

Illegal thread ressurection! But in this case, I'll let this one slide because I have something to add.
Programs CAN survive fire. They're just going to have bits and pieces of themselves all over the place. As I can imagine, very painful. Now how did I figure this one out? Simple... OVER PRICED COLLEGE TEXT BOOKS! You see, I read about a service that can reassemble programs, files, and data from destroyed hard drives. They fix and transfer them to another disk and presto! They programs are back and in one piece! So possiblilty of surviving fire = just painful but do-able.
