Reuters: Britain's National Hi-Tech Crime Unit is working with anti-virus firms to identify patterns in the source code of the most damaging Internet worms and virus programs to determine whether they are the work of organized subversive groups or crime syndicates. The hope is that buried somewhere in the lines of code will be clues to the author's identity, motive and possibly, future acts of sabotage. Of the dozens of viruses and worms that emerge on the Internet each week, none has been traced back to organized crime or subversives aiming to disrupt a country's infrastructure.
