Computer virus people from Co Durham

little kids on the streets usually don't know much else and don't think about what they're doing...

these allegedly 'educated' little pricks sit on their pc day in day out purposefully creating viruses that can cause no end of unnecessary damage and annoyance...

as for the rapist comment, you're a fucking joke screech.

If you say so!!

That was purely an example as I saw it on the news the other day...how does that make me "a joke"

Im not sympathising with virus writers, they do cause trouble, and of course its annoying. Im saying, these two hardly deserve a jail term for it. It's not a patch on the actual really bad worms.

Did their actions affect anyone on here? I cant even remember the name of the worm, hardly top 5 material is it.

oh and theres no "allegedly" at all, they clearly are very clever.

According to the report, they are part of a wider network to create worms, which I wouldn't imagine they are doing for the greater good of anyone... so evidently they may have been fairly insignificant in the scheme of things but they clearly for no other purpose than cause criminal damage.. and so the punishment should fit...

Its the digital equivelant of someone 'keying' your car or smashing your wing mirror, it won't cause a vast amount of physical damage and may be relatively cheap to repair - tell that to the owner...

attempting to be so naive as to insinuate that the police are more bothered about computer hackers than 'rapists and murderers' is the most absurd comparison i've ever heard...

You are right can't argue with that. I'd go absolutley off my nut if someone keyed my car to be fair.

And surely you must know that I was exaggerating the police point....

But they do seem to waste so much time on this trivial stuff. Motorists for example.

Although has to be said, having your PC reboot is hardly the same as getting your car keyed.

I think a better comparison for their contribution would be knocky nine doors

good.

they deserve all they get

I'd imagine 2 months with good behaviour

but 2 months in jail for 2 geeks is definately going to teach them a lesson

normally id say tough titty send the fuckers down but cos i know one of em and he was a sound lad. he should be out in a few for good behavior like.

The sentence is too lenient.

People spreading viruses are sad pathetic little shits, probably with no social skills.

No defence Screech.

so people who catch aids deserve it because they didnt wear a condom?

fuck that people who make computer virus's are fucking cocks they deserve everything they get.

hope bubba gets them.

They deserve prision little shits they caused millions of pounds wqorth of damage andf the worm will be around for years until it is compleatly deleted it was a Milicious act ffs
