> MSNBC reports that a David Smith of Aberdeen, NJ has been arrested and charged with originating the "Melissa" virus. Interfering with public communication carries a sentence of 5 to 10 years and up to $150,000 dollar fine. Glad to see the "bad guy" won't get away with it this time!
I think you're putting the cart before the horse a little bit. He's a suspect, he hasn't been convicted. For more info see
