Hi PM8228,

I see what you are getting at and have read articles about various countries having hundreds of people working in their "cyberwarfare" departments.

That is a bit different to this thread?

1. It is targeted
2. It is funded
3. It requires considerable resources working as a team?

I think that Agent_Steals scenario is more of a "cluster bomb" than a sniping rifle? I think it will be more a case of ensuring that there are sufficient sources of infection distributed across the Net, than on specific targeting of strategic nodes.

My main reason for this argument is that I don't think that the bad guys are numerous enough or organised enough for global specific targetting. I just hope that I am right, as your scenario would obviously be much more efficient

Cheers
