Microsoft Offering 250k+ - stealth_eclipse - Mar 4, 2009
Microsoft is determined to find the creator of a Worm. If you can give information on who the creator is, they will pay you.

Quote:Security experts are even more worried about the possibility the worm calls home every 24 hours to at least 250 servers each day for instructions or directed actions.
The Houston police department was forced to stop arresting people with traffic warrants because the worm spread its way through the police and city court's computer systems. Violent offenders were still arrested, but those with outstanding traffic warrants were simply issued citations instead of being arrested, Houston police officials said.
Is also giving the military problems
