Normally, I try to avoid bitching about the direct aspects of my job. But this one, I just don't understand.

Why do people make internet worms? For the life of me, I don't understand the answer. Hackers, I get. Breaking into systems for free information or for security checks or just to demonstrate prowess or a dozen other good reasons. I get it. But worms, worm writers don't make sense to me. I mean, half of it is to actually compromise as many machines as they can. It's all a number game so they can say 'I infected X machines'. But I don't really think that's enough for the amount of damage they inflict. And it's not targeted or anything. It's just random chaos on the internet put out there just to show the other worm fuckheads how big an e-penis you've got.

And don't even get me started on the guys that write anti-worm worms. Writing a worm to get rid of another worm is so illogical I can't even think about it without shaking my head. I mean, most of the time the solution is worse then the problem. Idiots.
