You should reply to the Tax Office. It’s important.

Thank you all so much :) I will beware of the tax office and sorry Wookie I cannot spare any cash, even if it means I do not receive my million pound lottery payment. Also beware of FedEx and their undelivered packages, FBI and their surveillance (pay us and you will not be prosecuted to the full extent of the law) and of course the penis enlargers and the Nigerian bankers. Oh and Mocmex on the chinese digital photoframes.

Sometime I would like to see a detailed evolutionary tree of malware.

{ Girl looking at a large screen with many green and red squares. The squares have writing in them and lines connecting them.}
{Side view. The screen is a huge LCD connected to a wireless router.}
Guy: Pretty, isn’t it?
Girl: What is it?
Guy: I’ve got a bunch of virtual Windows machines networked together, hooked up to an incoming pipe from the net. They execute email attachments, share files, and have no security patches.
Guy: Between them they have practically every virus.
Guy: There are mail trojans, warhol worms, and all sorts of exotic polymorphics. A monitoring system adds and wipes machines at random. The display shows the viruses as they move through the network. Growing and struggling.
{Guy walks past the girl and touches the monitor}
Girl: You know, normal people just have aquariums.
Guy: Good morning, Blaster. Are you and W32.Welchia getting along?
Guy: Who’s a good virus? You are! Yes, you are!
