Fair enough but still not cause to celebrate too much.

The guy I want is the SoBig author.

While I would love to see a public lynching, this kiddie was not truly
responsible for the Blaster worm.  The article reads:

"The "Blaster.B" version of the infection, which began spreading Aug.
13, was remarkably similar to the original Blaster worm that first
struck two days earlier; experts said the author made few changes,
renaming the infecting-file from "msblast" to an anatomical reference."

This kid only took the original code and modified it.  He should still
be prosectuted but he isn't the person that wrote the original.
