Perhaps it's just sloppy editing but your article neglects to point out that this, like all viruses etc, is a Microsoft-only problem. Users of modern OS's like Linux, OS X are not affected other than by the volume of crap passed on by their legacy-OS using colleagues. Best defence? Move yourself and anyone else you care about to a virus-free computing environment. Life's better that way.

I look forward to seeing an amended article that more closely reflects the actual situation.

Regards
