Security expert Bruce Schneier today wrote about the Storm Worm again. Go and read it and become very afraid if you are running the Windows operating system. Become even more afraid if you are responsible for a bunch of them, like in a company.

Larger companies often have internal barriers in place that deter interest in non-commercial proprietary software.
