Origin and purpose are officially claimed to be unknown, also the official version is that the virus is "harmless".

So if you want to trust official statements, it all means nothing, and no risk involved.

China developing a new real time military flight simulator game with an unprecedented hardware factor involved? That would revolutionise VATSIM, I assume.

Rumor has it that they have discovered that 'Alt+F5' fires the Hellfire missiles on the Predator, and that the pilots have sent chat messages to Al Qaeda stating they are "noobs" and have been "pwned" :D

'As Real as it gets'

I wonder if in the future we're going to be tricked into flying real Predator missions by a sim with 'state of the art graphics' ;)

Just like what it says in the title, so can a keylogger, activated or be totally uninteresting, many companies and especially individuals,have small keylogger in their computers without knowing it, and so does society today, and this is hardly a news,but they really mean convey sensitive information to please their master.

Command School, actually.

I think anybody trying to trick me into flying a real drone mission will have to be prepared to replace their drone inventory very rapidly...

I would like to know how many Gs turns those drones can take and how fast you can dive with them. :hmmm:

Propably I have to test it myself when they put public to fly missions behalf themselves... :D
