Maybe NANOG needs to implement a system where you have to log in to a web page with your NANOG meeting passcode in order to get a usable IP address. Then, when an infected computer shows up we will know exactly whose it was. Might even be interesting for a researcher to interview every infected party and figure out why it is happening even among a supposedly clueful group. --Michael Dillon
