Theories abound that the author wrote the worm to impress a girl, possibly named “San” — short for Sandy.
Um, didn't they already catch the kid that wrote love san a while back and what about welchia which cause way more havok even though it was a "good samaritian" worm?? Methinks the writer may not have a clue...
Sh!t, for $500K I would turn my own mother in! Do it like Clint in The Good The Bad and The Ugly...just got to be sure I can shoot the rope!
think its wack, the blaster worm was to affect m$ directly think thats funny. I wouldnt turn the guy in id buy him a beer lol

Personally I wonder why it's no a million $$$ per guy and only $250,000. Guess they figure that hacker/cracker types who might know the guy might turn him/her in for much less than the average joe.
I went from taking around 25 calls a day to taking over 100 because of that little **** hole that wrote blaster, so I'd kick his *** then turn him overQuote:
