within the virus he had a message for BIll Gates that read "billy gates why do you make this possible? Stop making money and fix your software!"

smart guy, could probably make a lot of money if he had his head on straight...

From what I am reading the media is ripping this guy an arse for being stupid. Supposedly his variation basically pointed crap to his own website that he registered in his own name and address. I am surprised to took a few days to nail him since he put his addy on the whole thing.
