HANOVER, Germany (Reuters) - A tip from reward-seekers and information from Microsoft led to the arrest of an 18-year-old suspected of creating the "Sasser" computer worm, German police and the software giant said on Saturday.
Spokesman Frank Federau for Lower Saxony police said police were certain they had the man behind one of the Internet's most costly outbreaks of sabotage.

Alleged Sasser LSASS worm creator "J. Sven" (probably the same
teenager who wrote some of the later Netsky variants) was arrested
by police in the northern german town of Rotenburg.
Rumor says it was the CIA or FBI who tracked him.
