At 376 bytes, is this new Sapphire worm the world's smallest computer

know how big it was?

I suspect the morse worm was bigger, therefor I'm prepared to offer a
flashy "World's smallest internet worm" award (solid gold statuette on
a marble stand with attached chrome plate which will be etched at a
later date) to the author of this one. If they would just like to stand
up and claim it ....
