...send you this file in order to have your advice.? I knew it was a virus because my friend?s first language is English. Unfortunately, when I tried to open the attachment, my e-mail program detected the virus and wouldn?t let me download it. I don?t know why it draws the line there but lets me continue to correspond with a guy whose screen name is ?Butterface...
...Because what we're preparing for is not the Code Reds of today, but the Code Deep Purples of tomorrow. Not half-assed worms cobbled together by so-called "script kiddies" who merely download the right pieces of code and whose intentions are basically benign. I'm talking about vast and malicious super worms. If you could create something that attacked Cisco router software, for example, you really would cause a global Internet meltdown...
...Like its namesake (Lawrence Fishburne's character in The Matrix), Morpheus has appeared almost out of nowhere to lead true believers into a different (and to some, terrifying) world. Here in Morpheus' private matrix, music files are free, easy to find, superfast to download. And unlike its doomed predecessor Napster, Morpheus is likely to escape the long arm of the Agents (a.k.a. music industry lawyers). In other words...

The second you download it, you know it's different. There's no off-putting server sign-on sequence like in the Gnutella programs. No lengthy process of scanning for music on your machine like Aimster makes you go through. Just a search page that returns results at a speed not seen since Napster. This is partly the fact that FastTrack is so focused on the end user experience, and partly the fact that plenty of people are using...
...that the genie is out of the bottle and online music services must forever be free or die. I'd say most of Morpheus' users are honest enough that they wouldn't mind if a dollar was deducted from their bank account every time they downloaded an MP3 (it would be worth it to guarantee a complete, error free download every time). But there's the rub: nobody appears to be even thinking of offering what we might call Morpheus Plus. The business models of Napster and MusicNet call for tunes to come in their own limited, secure format rather...
