Hi gang:
This is a little early for Friday's "Open Comment" day, but my memory is increasingly
more short term and by tomorrow I might forget -- so, here goes.
I watched a interview today where an security expert claimed that the Flame Virus was written in a
scripted language named lua (http://www.lua.org/).
He said that this was unusual because typically such viruses are written in languages like
Ruby-on-Rails and such.
So, my question to the group -- has PHP produced any viruses? If not, could it? If so, can anyone
elaborate on the details?
Cheers,
tedd
