E - Mail Virus Points to Human Flaws

In a lovely article from AP, Bob Jorgensen from Boeing was quoted saying People that are bent on doing these **writing viruses** things continue to display a high degree of intelligence. How appaling! How dare they be in any way intelligent! These pesky virus writers! I also really liked the line that indicated that the virus, although attacking exclusively computers that run Microsoft Windows wasn't exploiting any MSOS security flaw... and uhh... folks, what would you call the fact that this thing is spreading like wildfire? Ohhh right, hold on, I forgot, its because people use computers and people can be tricked to open their email and thus infect a computer with a virus that can do a number of intelligent nasty little things... hmmm.... great.
