Doesnt this raise the question of who is releasing the viruses? Are there really disgruntled computer programmers out there writing sophisticated viruses in an attempt to bring down the worlds computing networks? Or are companies like Symantic (owner of Norton) Mcafee, and other profiteering companies paying people to supply viruses for them. What better way to keep a market alive and active by regularly releasing new viruses, so much so that people are required to pay for a subscription to anti-virus definitions. Yes, this is conspiracy theorish, but its been that kind of week...
