	There was a good article in the San Jose Mercury News which
	covered both events, but made it pretty clear that experts
	such as some guy from the FBI didn't think there was any real
	connection between them.  Only important thing the article
	missed, IMHO, is that there's already new software out which
	wasn't as susceptible to Kashpureff's idiotic stunt.
