Sven Jaschan, self-confessed author of the Netsky and Sasser viruses, is responsible for 70 percent of virus infections in 2004, according to a six-month malware round-up published by antivirus firm Sophos on Wednesday.
The Bagle worm has turned into a killer: the latest variants are designed to search and destroy copies of Netsky.
