OK, wow. That sure seems to be a professionally made piece of malware.
I hope someone finds a way to stop it.
Although, Stuxnet apparently targeted the centrifuges that Iran used in their nuclear program, I wonder if 'Flame' is some kind of evolution of that. Hmmmmmmm.... What do you guys think?

Almost certainly US or Israeli state sponsored, considering the level of professionalism and the countries that have been infected. Don't complain when similar weapons are developed and used against your systems.

This one is at the moment in the middle east as well, but I don't think it is going to stay only there.
The only "nice" thing is the comment of Lewax "if you are not interesting enough, it deletes itself from the system". I hope it is and remains so.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpfull answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

This duck walks into a convenience store and asks the clerk, "Do you have any grapes?"
The clerk says no, and the duck leaves.
The next day, the duck returns and asks, "Do you have any grapes?"
The clerk again says no, and the duck leaves.
The day after that, the duck walks in the store again and asks "Do you have any grapes?"
The clerk screams at the duck, "You've come in here the past two days and asked if we had any grapes. I told you no every time that we don't have any grapes! I swear if you come back in here again, and ask for grapes, I'll nail your webbed feet to the floor!!"
The duck left, and returned the next day. This time he asked, "Do you have any nails?"
The clerk replied, "No."
and the duck said, "Good! Got any grapes?"
It's an OO world.

Hmmmm, ever heard of this: The duck grape song. Your joke has some resemblance I'd say.
Cheers!

Preposterous! I can see no resembly between my joke and that song period! 
Nice song though. Very catchy... "Waddle, waddle. Till the very next day!" *sings and hums*
Edit:
Song 2 and 3 are great too

That convenience store used to be a bar[^], although why a duck, or anyone else would expect to be able to buy grapes in a bar beats me.
The only reason I raise this is because I have heard this one somewhere in the last week or two and assumed that it must have been on here although obviously not. It is going to drive me bananas, I don't like grapes, trying to track down where it was I heard/read it. Curse you Naerling!

I rarely go there, although it is a slight possibility.
I'll probably wake up in the middle of the night with the solution.

Yep I got that at first, I had to change my settings to thread view to get to it. Not worth your bothering though, it's the same joke apart from the location and it was in 2003.

I'll give you benefit of the doubt: maybe it got lost on the translator's desk to make it to English or Dutch, but I found it pretty funny in grade school... 30-some years ago.
Still it made me smile and happy to know my memory (at least long term) is not as bad as I thought!

Bath salts do seem to be the latest whipping boy of bad behavior.
I was expecting the story to go more like this.
...he was soaking in bath salts in the back his SUV while eating chicken nuggets grown from in-organic battery cage raised chickens with a bacon side. A UK fox news magazine was found in his SUV and Justin Bieber still playing on the radio.
but if they wrote all that the bit about bath salts causing his problem might be a little less credible.

Sounds like an epidemic. Flesh eating rage machines taking over.
I'm off to get some weapons. I been waiting for this for a while.
If it moves, compile it

If you still believe you need more weapons except the ones you were born with you really won't be a good fighter.
Just my two cents.
Cheers!

Being a good fighter and surviving the zombie take over are different things altogether.

Yeah right, zombies! How could I have missed that impotent (no misspelling) fact.

"Eugene had an arrest record, mostly misdemeanors, including a battery charge from when he was 16"
What? Charging batteries is a crime? 
I found this story quite disturbing actually, just what sort of a place is the US where this kind of thing can even happen?

Nothing to say.

I work for a large, well known OEM who ships their bundle (of crap) with their PC's. I have to say, after 4 months of looking at the code, I wanna puke.
The solution is HUGE with at least 30 projects in it, written in C# (WinForms and WPF), VB, C, C++, and god know what else.
Starting the app in debug mode takes forever, and fixing/changing anything is a long, drawn out affair.
What I'v realized is that for all this code, it really isn't that complicated logically. But as is usually the case with old legacy systems, it's bloated and well beyond it's time.
Why do companies allow this to go on?

If it's not broken, fix it until it is

If they numb your mind then they can manipulate you.
Think "date rape drugs" - only, for the work force.
