Stuxnet; malware coming out of the computer

And what exactly does that mean? It's being reported that this virus will be capable of coming out of the computer to control Siemen systems that are automated; such as trains, lights, power plants, etc.

Countries that have been effected are: Iran, Asia, Europe, even the U.S. (sorry I'm no longer able to find the link that listed specific countries.)

Rumor is that Israel created it to attack Iran.

In the code Siemens has detected DEADF007. At first glance it looks like Dead Fool. But could it be Dead 2007?

In January 2007 http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/article1290331.ece
ISRAEL has drawn up secret plans to destroy Iran’s uranium enrichment facilities with tactical nuclear weapons.

Or am I completely grasping at straws?

While Iranian officials say infected systems at the Bushehr nuclear power plant are safe, those who work in cyber security are not as calm, and note that the attack opens the door for a range of threats that until now were largely theoretical.


I'm with the security on this one! It's a flat out lie that their nucelear power plant is safe. The malware isn't contained. It's apparently activated without any person touching any of the keys and said to be waiting for something now. Waiting for what? No one knows yet.

Now don't get me wrong, if iran no longer has control of their nuclear power plant, that makes the world a safer place, but since America's systems have also been affected with the malware it gets a little more personal.

At first Iran denied that they had a malware and then the very same day the said they did have it. Why? Were they not even aware they had it? Or were they lying? Either way, it doesn't make them look good. Someone even brought it to my attention that they may have created the malware themselves creating them as the victim against Israel yet again. But are they really smart enough to do that?

This was reported in July of 2010, but who knows if it was detected sooner and tried to be kept quiet?

The worm has now infected about 30,000 IP addresses in Iran. other sources say as high as 45,000 now.

I'm curious to know if this malware has affected gas station computers? I can't find any information on it.

Here's some fun info on hackers:

Another shooting at Fort Bliss, TX

Not much information is being released, but my son, a corpsman, is currently training new guys there and I was supposed to be there Sunday and today and leave Tuesday. I'm ecstatic to say that my son is alive and wasn't near the incident when it happened.

Bare Naked Islam

This is a new website I came across. I don't even remember how I found it or it came to me through another email.

Anyway, it's one of the political sites that isn't about being politically correct, but politically accurate.

With all of the crap that is happening every single day, it's good to have a site with more accurate information than the stupid media.

Check it out:
