Have you guys heard about this?

Cracking Stuxnet, A 21St-Century Cyber Weapon [VIDEO]

Stuxnet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Its a virus that infects windows computers with the goal of being hooked up to to industrial controllers. Specifically it seems this current for was designed to compromise Irans nuclear program. Its very interesting and scary stuff. The level of difficulty and amount of specialized knowledge about Irans refineries hints that this may be a government sponsored virus.

Im no conspiracy theorist but this does seem like it is quite out of the realm of some guy in his moms basement. :undecided:

At this point the virus is worldwide and infects 60% of the windows OS computers in Iran.

General consensus is that there's about a 90% likelihood that Stuxnet was created by the governments of US and Israel.

I watched a documentary about that, and they clearly said the US was the one who was responsible. So where they speculating?

Well I dont think the US ever admitted responsibility so they must have been. I would imagine its hard to trace these things back to a source.
