The Jan 27,2004 Boston Globe had a very well done
article regarding the recently released Mydoom virus
that appears to be released from Hong Kong and attacks
only M/S windows systems.  for details see:

  www.boston.com/business/technology/articles/2004/01/27
      _email_worm_floods_systems_outbreak_seen_just_beginning/

included report that researchers at Symantec Inc felt Mydoom
infected machines may carry out "denial of Service" attacks
specially targeting the SCO web site (SCO Inc recently sued
IBM for allegingly including some of its linux code in program
material it has released without license)

Linuxers wouldn't do something so nefarious towards their most
despised competitors would they.

Nah, would they?

Ciao, Ack.
