    SCO are flinging mud in the hope some sticks.

    http://www.linuxworld.com/story/42125.htm - MyDoom is Russian spammers
    - anyway all this Crud about "linux community" being responsible for attacks on SCO - what about all the DOS attacks from the "windows community"
    Thirteen percent of infected computers are in the United States, compared to a figure of under 1 percent for Russia, according to Kaspersky Labs.

    "Russia usually does better fighting e-mail viruses than the United States because systems administrators are generally more competent here and install protection quicker," Zenkov said.

    Russia might be better prepared, but then it is often the source of server-stomping viruses, as in the case of MyDoom.

    "We don't understand why, because usually programmers write viruses during an economic downturn when there is no work and nothing else to do," Zenkov said. "Right now there is plenty of work for Russian programmers."
