Just when you thought it was safe…
The Mydoom virus has spawned two new variants, which are seeking to cash in on the success of the original.
Interestingly, this new variant, which also attacks Microsoft.com, apparently DID, unlike the original, knocking that website off the Net.
According to net monitoring firm Netcraft this attack may have been responsible for disrupting the smooth running of the Microsoft website on Monday morning when it was temporarily unavailable.
