Via The Times Online (UK).

[snip]

Three men suspected of bombarding business computers with e-mail
viruses have been arrested following an investigation into internet
fraud involving police in Britain and Finland.

The trio - a 63-year-old from England, a 28-year-old from Scotland and
a 19-year-old from Finland - are accused of creating trojan viruses
attached to spam emails with the intention of causing a "massive
infection".
