I've been toying with the idea that the replicators needed to involve more advanced technology than the human civilization that created them currently understood.
a) Kiron particles were well beyond the Asgards understanding of physics so how does Reese obtain the knowledge of Kiron particles from a human civilization probably more primitive than the Asgard.
b) If the human civilization understood the physics of kiron particles, they'd likely understand how to use it against the Replicators. I don't think we've been shown any AI where the AI conquers their organic masters other than the Replicators.
c) If the Replicators acquired the technology later on, possibly through gate travel or when in contact with the Asgard, the Replicators could have been communicating through regular radio waves. All electric devices could be flooded and crashed though by the same radio frequency that the communicate at. The human civilization could have just nuked the atmosphere and let the electromagnetic pulse overload the replicators if they were originally using electric circuits. The analog would be exactly what Atlantis did to the hot zone virus.
So I'm speculating that the human civilization found out some alien relic from an even more advanced civilization (possibly the Ancients) through either their own stargate program or on their homeworld. The alien relic allowed the civilization to create an AI possibly as a conduit to extract the database in the alien relic. Reese creates the Replicators and because the physics is way beyond the human civilization, they're wiped out because they don't understand the physics of the Replicators.
