How long until they start detecting F-16's?

Howcome hackers can't come up with really awesome names for their viruses? Like "Ultimate Killer Death Star Laser Beam" virus? Or "I'm here to melt down your nuclear reactor core and there's nothing you can do about it!" virus?

Come on, geeks, you're disappointing me.

People don't want viruses named after hungry old Greek broads! They want names like 'Mustang' and 'Cheetah'! Vicious animal names!

In America Symantec makes a terrible anti-virus that slows down your computer like no other, in Iran they make sure they can still have a nuclear program? WTF

"Iran says has detected Duqu computer virus"

Who doesn't check the title of an article?

I think it's a typo.

'D' and 'F' are right next to each other on the keyboard.

Actually, he spent WWII with the R.A.F., and maybe the S.O.E.

NOT the O.S.S.

I can't wait until we bomb the hell out of this country. God knows they deserve it.

But we probably won't. Oh well.

It's this kind of mentality that causes wars.

Yes, because I'm sure every Iranian in the country would deserve it. Don't forget that America isn't very popular either on the global stage, and with good reason.

Every country is at fault with itself, so lets start by pointing the finger at ourselves and cleaning up our own mess, perhaps we might even serve as an example to others in the process.

Aww; can't we just replace logical scrutiny and reasoned action with nationalistic jingoism? That seems like way less effort...

Thanks a lot for blabbing, Symantec. And also thanks for taking up 330 MB of memory with ccsvchst.exe. I guess they're just jealous that anyone else can develop a resource-hogging, intrusive pig of program, all horning in on their action.

Yeah, WTF on the Symantec aspect of this?

Why does Israel hate Iran so much that Israel is willing to nuke Iran with U.S. nukes that Israel already has, in order to commit genocide against the Iranian people.

/Don't forget that nuclear fallout from Israel bombing Iran will hit the U.S. a few days later, depending on global air currents.
//You know who else wanted to eliminate a peoples many decades ago....... Don't repeat history. Either of you.

So the Dos Equis guy got his title of nobility from being the heir to Lord Summerisle? (Lee once said that was his favorite role... and I sure love it)

Why do Americans pronounce 'u' as 'oo' ?
'u' should be pronounced 'you' in most cases.
Duke shouldn't sound like 'dook', it should be more like 'dyook'.
Guess that's why you all laugh at Pujol's name.

All of their creativity goes into creating l33t hax0r handles to use when they publicly announce their acts via defacement, because everyone knows the first thing you do when you have access you're not supposed to have is announce it to the world and put up phallic symbols.

I also like the tale about Lee being interviewed and the interviewer kept pressing on the issue of what exactly Lee "did" during WWII.

Lee: "Can you keep a secret?"
Interviewer: "Yes!" (no doubt said expectantly)
Lee: "So can I."
End of interview

Christopher Lee was, is, and will always be for yrs trly the ultimate badass villain. Badass in real life and badass on screen. His Dracula would make those whiny, angsty Twilight vampires run squealing to their closets where they'd hide with Mister Flopears, their fluffy bunny toy, until The Bad Man went away.
