Re: W32.Winux virus on Linux machines



good news ;-)  now the anti-virus folks will want to
port their software to linux, people will want to pay for it,
production quality application software will start seeing
the light of day on linux. better debuggers and development
environments will be on their way, as people need them enough
to pay for them.

this may sound like heresy, but money does work it's own
wonders :)

no reason to think it's a hoax, this was inevitable. even though
some quickfix may be found, there are bound to be more strains
of the virus in the future.
