Re: Jerry Andrews?
The worm seems to be able to pick up a link from a web page stored in the machine. The most horrible consequence may not be that it destroys files on the victims' machine, but its ability to pick up at random a file to append itself -- while you got a resume from Jerry Andrews, one of my customers I visited yesterday got an attachment from his CEO in Overseas with confidential corporate . Well, he paid a big price to get his machine back to work ( I only charge him a humble fee btw, but he has to spend hours restoring his data ), but he says its worth it.

Re: Jerry Andrews?
I haven't got any of these or the SirCam stuff(looking around quickly for wood to knock on). I don't think it's this list, the name doesn't sound familiar.
