The Security Mentor

Trend Micro, a respected antivirus firm, had some of their internal documents show up on a file sharing network because of a virus that does things like that. So say the headlines, which hint that we should all point and giggle.

Here's the fine print, which tells you not to trust headlines:

• The virus infected one person's home machine and not the company network
• That person was not running antivirus software, which is dumb
• That person downloaded the virus from a peer-to-peer network, which was dumb
• That person is now described as "an employee, who is no longer with Trend Micro"
