It is indeed unclear who the worm was aimed at, but I'm confident that it wasn't the Dutch and I'm now more certain than ever that other innocent victims will turn up.
Interesting. I tell you "I am a victim" so therefore I could not have written the virus. Hmm... (Just interesting, definitely not informative or insightful -- pre-meta-modding.)

My mod points have expired, so I'll just say, "well said" and "that was never five minutes just now!" (In fact, it's been less than a minute, as Slashcode reminded me -- after, I'll have you note, I decided to quote Monty Fucking Python, so it was really neat that Slashcode tripped me up, yet again, to remind me that Slashcode's tripping was topical!)

Personally, I find the second wave of infections more likely to be someone modifying the payload and basic parameters for their own ends, it seems quite different from the mindset that drove the first set of attacks.
Exactly! Just like, Sony releasing a rootkit (that would have ended up in PMITA prison for you and me) ended up in viruses being written that target that rootkit's additional vulnerabilities. Thus, the second wave.

No, they'll just convert "her" back. (Hope he saved "his" foreskin!)
Like your other responder noted, Microsoft botched the "no GUI server" by requiring a video card that could do graphics. Linux "GUI-less" only requires a video card that can display text-only modes -- not one that can also do graphics. Linux wins here, but Windows still sells more.:)
Uh, it already did... Now they're trying to stuff the Sudafed menace back in the bottle... (Really, Slashcode, I can't possibly have something to say in less than a minute? Go fuck yourself. Minute over.)
[...] designed and constructed in a manner which is appropriately safe given the intended use of the product it is contained in, including the target market.
You know, children's fingers have the capability of removing the sense of vision in other children.
CHILDREN'S FINGERS NEED TO BE REMOVED IMMEDIATELY!
And, if you do it at birth, you can keep them next to the foreskin, so if your useless child needs any sort of genetic oh shit I'm done with this thought.
Yeah, but: you can draw tits with a pair of compasses. NOT IN MY AMERICA!!!eleven! (And it has "ass" embedded in it, making it even worse for our Puritanical sensibilities. And the first syllable rhymes with "cum"! Oh fuck might as well just kill myself -- if only.)
Compromise means accepting a little evil into your life; therefore the darkness. Transparency lets the light through. Your mind is focused on religion. Enjoy being in that skull!
Yer welcome! Keep the good stuff coming. (Yes, I really could type that in 17 seconds, Slashcode.) (Yes, I really wanted to post this one minute after posting another post. So, here, enjoy today's QOTD: "There's no use in having a dog and doing your own barking." I don't have a dog, so I'm barking about Slashcode stupidity. Again.)
Guys, you spelled the lead-in ad wrong. First, the link is to just the www.ZeroTurnaround.com site, not to "/jrebel" -- and it's on the page after the link (just, not part of the link) as "/jrevel". (I also tried both, to ensure I'm stating facts; "/jrevel" is an error page, while "/jrebel" has content.)
Sorry, it's Autumny in these parts. Leaves have started changing even!
Seriously folks, where that skepticism that prevents you from swallowing everything fed to you by your government? Does it all go out the window because you're being fed by someone who matches your politics?
Matching politics? How quaint. Politics is darkness; wikileaks (and the thousands that will spring up, now that these people have departed to work on their own) is light.
Snorting my beer, thank you sir. You reminded me of the end of Bill and Ted's, in Ox's delivery of his history report: "Everything is different, but the same... things are more moderner than before... bigger, and yet smaller... it's computers... San Dimas High School football rules."

Quick! Report all suicides and heart attacks around the time that this happened!
Today's QOTD is rather apt: "That secret you've been guarding, isn't."

China? They have roving death vans. (Yes, fucking Slashcode, I typed the non-parenthesisized portions in 12 seconds.)

What I meant is, corporations have always paid for war through taxation strategies. I don't see a benefit to adding an additional siphon.
What is, taxes for $200, Alex.
Fortunately, not literally! :)
Okay, so my previous post said the other guy was my hero for today, but you're noteworthy too. :) (I can do A LOT IN A FUCKING MINUTE SLASHCODE.)
You, sir, are my hero today.
Uh, it already did... Now they're trying to stuff the Sudafed menace back in the bottle... (Really, Slashcode, I can't possibly have something to say in less than a minute? Go fuck yourself. Minute over.)
Yeah, y'know I wonder if that wasn't just tribal warfare at work. "Poison their kids and we'll win in 50 years."
You know, children's fingers have the capability of removing the sense of vision in other children.

In reading your comment, I mentally skipped the "kits". And it fit. Damn.

No, I use a decent font.
