Smart Move!

Microsoft is now offering a half million dollars for information leading to the arrest of hackers responsible for some of the recent viruses that have wreaked Internet havoc. I had to chuckle at that. What a smart move! Whoever wrote those viruses better hope that some enterprising hacker who needs the money and doesn’t agree with what he/or she did doesn’t find that surprisingly strong motivation to backtrack them. Offering bounties might be exactly what it takes to put the brakes on what appears to be a growing epidemic.
