-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 "Worms like Storm are written by hackers looking for profit, and they're different. These worms spread more subtly, without making noise. Symptoms don't appear immediately, and an infected computer can sit dormant for a long time. If it were a disease, it would be more like syphilis, whose symptoms may be mild or disappear altogether, but which will eventually come back years later and eat your brain." http://www.wired.com/politics/security/commentary/securitymatters/2007/10/s ecuritymatters_1004 Note: This is an excellent summary of the Storm situation.
