Microsoft Worms and Global Routing Instability
James Cowie writes: "Fresh analysis here indicates that worm propagation periods correlate very strongly with global BGP routing instability, as measured by sustained exponential increases in the number of prefix announcements and withdrawals seen in BGP message traces."
...is sad, but true:
Global Routing is dying.
Microsoft IIS Worms
Is the Worms cause or effect?
Is IIS the cause or effect?
If we shutdown one of them, net becomes stable?
Is it easier shutdown worms than IIS?
hmmm... it's a hard decision. Has anyone scanned Internet for viruses?

of contributing to global worming. They need to cut back their toxic emissions immediately before it's too late to save the planet.

So...on a related note.
If it is true that viruses create BGP instability, one can extrapolate that this is a form of
terrorism, by disrupting international communications.
Now - as Microsoft has done almost nothing to effectively eliminate the threat of viruses, and
hence a form of terrorism, MS can then be seen as "harbouring terrorism".
Didn't George W himself say that those who harbour terrorists will receive the same fate?
It's therefore in the international communities best interests to destroy Microsoft!

are you trying to tell me that microsoft is unstable and most likely carrying some form of a virus? thanks impossible!
Beware Microsoft's Crack Moderation Squad has been deployed.
Whenever a popular product shows up on Windows, Microsoft usually ends up either buying the company or writing their own version which sucks for the first few versions. So when will we be seeing MS Worm Version 1.0?
I'm trying to teach myself to set people on fire with my mind... Is it hot in here?
