One virus writer 'responsible for 70 percent of infections'

Heh, just goes to tell ya that right after an installation you need to have A/V software ready

So sad, dont people have a better way to spend their time?

Why is that sad? I've hung around various corners of the VX scene... a large majority of the time peaple give credit where credit is due, articles and some posts are always great & sometimes funny, everyone I've talked to was nice and had some similiar views that I have.

Agian, why is this sad when in comparison to a large majority of people that don't particularly enjoy their life... and the only "hobby" they have is watching re-runs on TV, eating things they don't really enjoy for dinner, then going to sleep just to go to work the next day and do this routine over & over & over agian... intil they grow old and die knowing that they've never actually done anything.

Spyder32: you say if people weren't so ignorant they wouldn't have so many messes to clean up. I believe if they weren't so ignorant they begin to realize the mess they were in and then they would have a problem as long as they don't know it's there in their eyes everythings fine.

Netsky and Sasser caused my customers loads of problems, but made me loads of money

At present 80% or the repairs coming into my workshop are Virii related. And at an average repair bill of €110.00 inc VAT I like to think it's worth my time.

Once a system has been cleaned by my team we update and educate. I would only get maybe 1 per month back as a re-repair.

I do not think that writing virii should be seen as them been hero's but as them wasting a good talent and the chance to make serious money working for "the man"

There again, if there were no infections, I would not have as many repairs
