no 'Blaster' Internet attack, it seems Microsoft has come prepared for the ultimate challenge.

still, exploiters of the Microsoft flaw made a mistake themselves. the worm instructed computers to call up http://windowsupdate.com -- which is an incorrect address for reaching the actual Microsoft Web site that houses the software patch. although Microsoft has long redirected those who visited that incorrect address to the real site _ http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com -- the company disabled the automatic redirection Thursday in preparation for the onslaught of infected computers.

so far so good. still i remember the days when Microsoft was badly hit by the "love bug" virus, who would ever forget that. even penetrating the Pentagon.. hahahaha

hmm, i wonder what happend to that creator of that virus, i heard that there was no law at that time when the undistructable virus made headlines, do you think Microsoft would ever pirate such mind?
