Sony has already had three lawsuits filed against them over the rootkit
*before* this happened. They're really going to regret this idea...

BTW: Some non-virus exploits have been found as well. Players of the
"World of Warcraft" (I think that's the name) game have found they can
get themselves *deliberately* infected with the Sony malware and then
rename all their cheat software filenames by adding $sys$ to the
beginning. This makes the Sony rootkit hide the cheats from the
operators of the online game!
