why would a linux user write such a poorly disgused spam relay network? 
The whole SCO thing was a smoke screen to deflect from the worms true
intent allowing spammers to intergrate your machine into a spam net.

If only journalists would keep up to date and actully tell users what
this thing does and that it comes from Russia (where linux users won't
give a fuck about SCOs american court bids) home of much of the worlds
spam then we wouldn't get tarred with this brush.

The microsoft thing was probably some script kiddie playing with the
source.  They will get busted ;-)
