This weeks new virus

is also a great ad for Windows. With most security experts and the Department of Homeland Security recommending everyone switch to a non-Microsoft browser, I expect MS to eliminate open source software within the next few days.

And since MS says IE is an integral part of Windows and cannot be removed I guess that means sorb took advantage of another operating system hole, and cannot be attributed to an application bug.

By the way, I wonder how Microsoft discovered the sorb virus so quickly. Since it only infected IIS servers could, some of those unnamed "very popular sites" that were infected have belonged to Microsoft?
