Good analogy, except that you couldn't throw OTHER cars at a distance into Park, including very expensive ones, like the way this "virus" has been described to have the power to affect ISP servers by malicious users logging on. Is this BS?

Gary.

>IMO, this is NOT a bug, but more like a virus. This is like saying all cars have bugs because if you throw
them in reverse while speeding down the highway it will crash the car. Collins admitts that the problem can
only be initiated by issuing an ILLEGAL instruction. Do you call that a bug?? Are viruses just bugs that better
processors would ignore??
