Siemens Update

What an unfortunate situation where someone is exploiting a hole in Microsoft Windows, but the target happens to be using a software product from Siemens. But you have to give Siemens a ton of credit. A team of experts immediately jumped into the muck. They've found the hole, searched customers and found the infected one, and now they have released a tool to detect and remove the virus. It is available for download here. And every day an explanatory release comes out to keep everyone informed. And all this in less than a week.
