ok, this may sound crazy but i have to ask.. why would anyone develop computerized industrial systems for running a nuclear plant and proceed to hook the systems onto the net? or is that not how the virus got to the plant?<br>
<br>if i had my own systems for doing whatever crazy thing i may conjure up, this is how i would set them up.<br><br>1. in a very secure basement<br>2. no internet, just intranet<br>3. all updates/patches/etc would be downloaded from the net scanned at least thrice, then taken manually to the basement by me :)<br>
<br>anyways - someone pls explain to me how govts, banks etc get hit by malicious worms/viruses - worse still how they get hacked via their websites.. (i undertand this is impossible in Kenya - since all bank websites are hosted at <a href="http://hostgator.com">hostgator.com</a> :) )<br>
