-----Original Message----- When he said it, I thought to myself, "Oh, boy - this'll probably get
picked up and distorted as being some kind of 'WiFi virus', heh."
But I certainly agree with you that there was no sensationalism

Brian Krebs, an excellent reporter, did a very good job of explaining
the actual Windows problem.
Hopefully, his reportage will become the canonical >>>press reference
and we won't end up with 'WiFi virus'hysteria.
