If you don’t already know about Storm, you should educate yourself by reading this blog post. Between the information contained in the post and all the links that it has you should have a pretty good idea of why “Storm” worries people.
We are talking about a virus that is so scary some people are talking about it being the creation of some government or other. I don’t buy that theory at all. Lately, who ever controls Storm has been using it to attack anti-fraud sites. That seems like a pretty petty occupation for a government.
But the fact that Strom was not cooked up by some government should scare people more then any conspiracy theory. Cyber gangs are staring to get sophisticated enough that they are becoming truly dangerous.
