Is this the 3pm deadline we heard about?
To: dogbyte12
They shut down because the virus "make them speak truth"

They shut down at noon... 3 hours earlier, and told everybody basically to back away from their PC's and turn them off. Looks like their entire system is infected...big time.

Not to worry!
I'm sure they have a backup bull$h!t-generator there.

This has to be terrorism...and no I am not joking.

A lot of people are getting a chuckle out of the NYT getting accosted by this virus, but that's like whistling past the graveyard in this environment. It seems that someone is f'ing with us big time, and it's gradually getting worse...
To: My Favorite Headache
Really, all the evidence points to email spammers as the source rather than terrorists. 'Cui bono?'

Don't be so alarmist. Terrorists aren't the only ones who would cause general misery for their own gain. Take telemarketers, for instance.

A question that few, if anyone, is asking:
"Why is this still spreading? After all the publicity, do you have to be a complete idiot to not know that you shouldn't open a *.pif, *.exe, or *.scr attachment?"
