If this is a virus, why is there no mention of how it is transmitted?

If you follow the link to the Chris Waldrip posting, you will notice that none of the people who comment on the "virus" posting think it is a virus. Rather it seems like a cracker manually breaking into the system.

It seems like poor journalism to put up an article on a "virus" without having identified the information about viruses that a uses actually needs, how it spreads and thus how it could get onto your machine.
