Chris Posted May 8, 2004 Report Share Posted May 8, 2004 An 18-year-old German high school student has admitted creating the Sasser internet worm, police say. The worm spread through an estimated 18 million computers across the world last week, continually shutting down and rebooting them. The teenager was arrested on Friday in the town of Rotenburg in northern Germany, and has now been released. Investigators seized a number of computers and disks from his home. It is understood he was working alone.More | Here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andsome Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 He needs to be locked up and the key thrown away. The law is not strict enough for these lame brain idiots. It's bad enough if they damage Joe publics computer, but think of the potential loss of life if emergency services are hit, or air traffic control, or hospitals, or a host of other utilities.
