Yahoo! news article at

Brought to my attention by someone on another list, who posted the link
http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,5771929~root=security,1~mode=flat

It's a message board where a lot of techies are discussing the problem,
what's happened to them personally and what they're hearing from other
sources.  There were 220 messages there last I looked, including one that
had a thumbnail for/link to the "pretty picture" I posted a link for on
another thread.

Anyway, it's interesting what can happen when people don't check for updates
and update the buggy software they have licenses for.  Interesting what it
can do to people who don't have any direct connection *to* the software in
question.  Interesting how it's all interconnected, and someone being a jerk
in Asia can bring down part of the 'net in the US temporarily.
