> A NEW WORM that can delete files from infected hard
> drives is using the terrorist attacks of two weeks
> ago, as well as the expected U.S. military response,
> to trick users into executing it, according to Ian
> Hameroff, business manager for security solutions at
> Computer Associates International (CA). Exact details
> of how the worm works, however, are not yet clear as
> different security companies have different analyses.
