I assume a lot of folks have already seen this:

> *Subject:* *Computer Virus Hits U.S. Drone Fleet*
> http://www.wired.com/dangerroom/2011/10/virus-hits-drone-fleet/
*
After seeing this, from a few sources, I'm reminded that there are a
couple of vendors who've been selling the Defense Department security
monitoring packages that are essentially rootkits that do, among other
things, key logging.

I kind of wonder if the virus that folks are fighting is something that
some other part of DoD deployed intentionally.
