It actually says "updates" not installation (my stars): <quote> infecting systems through the **update** mechanism, according to a ZDNet blog. The attackers claim, in the Readme for the kit, to have modules implemented to attack the following product **updates** </quote> > The attacker specifically mentions OO.o in the > kit "ReadMe". No, it says:"OpenOffices" This is not the correct name of this program (or site) and OOo does not have updates as such. I doubt they have achieved what they claim, tho' that doesn't mean that we can all be complacent.
