I find your "explanation" why this author of a virus should be treated
any different than other authors somehow illogical. The Sasser author
has done nothing to foster security. So there is really no need for the
security scene to support him.

there is one other thing...

he is correct when he says that Microsoft will say it's completely the worm writer's fault. BUT i think Microsoft should be punished too for having so many security holes. they had to patch it faster.

who's fault is it really when you buy a door, you lock it, but a burglar finds a way to easily open it, comes in and tells you...

just my 2 cents

aka Rik Bobbaers
ps. i don't agree with the worm writers, but just want to say it's not just his fault, microsoft has to take it's responsability too
