BitDefender
sees Al-Qaeda link in new Atak worm
ZDNet UK 16/07/04

detection by antivirus software, has been linked to an Al-Qaeda
sympathiser who once threatened to release a powerful worm if the US
attacked Iraq.
Romanian antivirus firm Bitdefender claims the worm's author has signed
his nickname into an encrypted part of the worm's code.
Mihai Radu, communications manager at BitDefender, told ZDNet UK that the
virus, discovered on Friday, is signed by Melhacker, which
is the moniker of a Malaysian-based coder called Vladimor Chamlkovic,
who in 2002 threatened to release an "uber-worm" if the US
attacked Iraq.
Mikko Hyppönen, director of antivirus research at Finnish company
F-Secure, said it is possible that Melhacker wrote Atak.B but that doesn't
mean it has anything to do with Al-Qaeda..."
