this bit from an article on pbs.org caught my attention. a chap responding to cringely's piece about the death of tcp/ip and pointed out that the creator(s) of code red hadn't really been very creative. he then went on to suggest that someone could write a worm that quietly changed one random 2 to 8 in every excel spreadsheet on a pc... and then propagated itself quietly.
when would we hear about it? when some financial giant went bankrupt... sobering thought, indeed. sam -- (Sam Varghese) http://www.gnubies.com
