Hrmmm.... Howard Dean is a big time blogger. Makes one wonder. If I see him with a can of Jolt Cola I reckon its him.

I'm waiting for the next SoBig variant that scans your hard drive and then emails out images it finds under "My Pictures" Dang could that be embarassing.

With as many pictures as I have, it might bring the internet down... ;)

Actually, the 'payload' could include a variation of Norton Utilities [tm] Undelete function and a search for deleted JPEGS prior to the E-Mail out function.

Whether or not there is pornography, just the use of all that bandwidth for images would take the Internet down.

Since I am not in the Virus writing club, if I could think of it, I'll bet someone is working on it if not already done.

Symantec maintains a vast encyclopedia of viruses. Very, very few make it "into the WILD."

Figuring out a method of distribution that is 'overwhelming' seems to be the thing that stops most viruses.
