CNET | VIRUS & SECURITY NEWSLETTER 2001's Top 5 worst computer viruses January 2, 2002 Vol. 1, No. 4 2001 was a record year for computer viruses. In 2001, I covered 65 viruses for CNET Networks--double my coverage the previous year--and most ranked a 6 or higher on the CNET Virus Meter (http://clickthru.online.com/Click?q=0b-0NB-INQSdFR3ya01mwgpRwYm selecting the top 5 worst viruses of 2001, I've been picky. I've excluded a few carry-overs from 2000 and before, such as MTX, Hybris, and Kakworm. And I've biased my picks toward those most likely to be models of future viruses in 2002. Therefore, my choices may stray a bit from those of the major antivirus vendors because I'm looking at total destruction potential, not just speed. So, without further ado, my picks for 2001 are: BadTrans.B, Sircam, Magistr, Nimda, and Goner. -------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe send an email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] with UNSUBSCRIBE COLEXT as the BODY of the message.
