QUOTE The infamous Storm worm may be perceived as the world's most dangerous botnet, but security experts say a worm called Nugache could be more of a threat...hackers...gave Nugache a facelift, copying many of the successful attributes of Storm, such as encryption, a rootkit and the ability to spread as web-borne malware...One way it has been seen spreading is through URLs embedded by attackers in blogs... pcadvisor.co.uk -------------------- "THE BAD GUYS DON'T NEED A SEARCH WARRANT.
