Prepare you self: Stuxnet II is coming

Actually it's here and it's called 'Flame'.

Quote:
A post by Kaspersky Lab's security products reports that Worm.Win32.Flame is "designed to carry out cyber espionage. It can steal valuable information, including but not limited to computer display contents, information about targeted systems, stored files, contact data and even audio conversations."
Quote:
Another intelligence analyst said, "Flame redefines cyber espionage, it makes all the other software in that category look like cheap toys!"

Indeed it's not new, but been around for 2 years - only Kaspersky found it now. 20 Mbs of code, obviously made by some government.
Meanwhile, there will be others ..

And in 2 years there will be no privacy on the 'net at all, anymore.
