Ha ha, unfortunately the worms and viruses are not stupid at all.
Have you seen how www.Klez.gem at mm  virus works?
It is a great product!
But unfortunately for all the people...

ok, if the windows users aren't computer savy enough or care enough to

even though I use windows as little as possible these days, I still
protect myself against idiots that want to code stupid worms.
It's just using your brains.
