ResumoIf it’s fun to write a virus, then girls just want to have some of that fun. Not too many mind you, but just enough to hit the headlines and get some attention. So, are they getting the attention because of their virus writing prowess, or just because they are a female drop in a male ocean? The answer really has to be the latter, but then the latest female perpetrator did go a lot further than your average script kiddie, being the first to write a virus in Microsoft's new C# language, creating the second piece of malicious code designed to target Microsoft's new .NET platform.
