Public canings are an option, but how about a public "live hookup" to about 4000 volts??

Were any customers on this alias affected by the worm? I will understand if you don't want to tell me.
I didn't , I feel left out. I don't think the trojan worm made it out to the alias.
I got a copy of it, but wasn't affected. Large mailing lists in address books give these "new" worms interesting vectors. The subject "RE: Early Access" combined with the worm message text and the fact that it came from a vendor employee gave it a nice illusion of legitimacy. Unpleasant. So, quick vote: Those in favor of public canings for virus authors say aye. jason
