- The data is pretty clear: over 60% of infected computers are in Iran. The threat is so sophisticated: it would require knowledge of industrial control systems, which indicates this was a highly organized and well-funded project. Many IT specialists like Kaspersky Labs, a computer security company, has already committed to building a new kind of operation system in the hopes of defending against major industrial exploits and attacks. It will work as an additional security layer on top of existing OS. http://www.gns-store.com

- Make Stuxnet not Skynet... This might actually save us a lot of time and money, if we were to attack are enemies on a cyber scale, versus bombing innocent civilians. But the "Obamanator" should watch out for all those cyber hackers in China and Russia. IF they were to get their hands on this software, it could be deadly.
