Having been a sysadmin during the campaign I can't help but question most of the words that come out of Joe Trippi's mouth. The sad truth is that if half of the people here, Trippi included, focussed more on the campaign than on their personal career, we might still be in a campaign now instead of the political action committee, Democracy for America.
The truth is hard to find in Trippi's book. Even in my personal case; I built blogforamerica.com and Matt Gross gets the credit because that's the way the political game works.
Joe can be right just as often as not, but before we go taking his words as gospel I suggest we look behind them a little more.
If this has already been said, I missed it. I just want to remind folks that the vulnerability this variant plays off of is old. The easiest, simplest answer to the queston of protecting one's self from this virus is to make sure you keep up with your Windows Updates. Then it won't affect you.
However, as we all know, this isn't enough for other virii. These days, you're going to want to have an up to date, modern, virus scanner, trojan scanner, and you may even want to throw in a spyware scanner for fun. AND keep up with Windows Updates.

The only thing I can say to this is blunt. If I was such a favorite, why did you just spell my name wrong? So long, and thanks for all the fish.
