Osama Virus

Okay, this is just wrong.  First off, I never understood the lure of writing viruses.  But then again, I never understood the need to destroy your own neighborhood to stage a riot…I mean protest either.  Someone has written a virus and has posted it to newsgroups trying to pass it off as photos of a hung Osama Bin Laden.  Here’s the low down on the BBC.

I happened to see this on a few newsgroups and the fact that it was posted to so many newsgroups tipped me off that it wasn’t what it claimed to be.  Well, that and the Whitehouse doesn’t have enough clout to sit on every news agency in the world to keep pictures like this under wraps even if they existed.
