    Assuming that he is, in fact, responsible. If I wanted
    to release a worm and blame someone else for it, the first thing
    I'd do is pick out some basically clueless kiddie who's been
    bragging about his skillz on IRC and set him up exactly like
    this. Next thing you know, the FBI and virtually everyone on
    the planet is convinced he's guilty, and I get off scot free,
    ready to release my next new and improved worm. Piece o' cake.
