NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - Attention virus writers. Microsoft is putting a bounty
on your heads.

since $5M > $10K i conclude that microsoft are right and innocent.

hope that virus writers don't have virii for mass destruction, because their
countries may be nuked for the purpose of establishing democracy.
