break into every single type of platform out there, and remove so called malicious code. If you don't realize it by now, I'm being sarcastic here.

And then what? If one installs/modifies/deletes a portion of/or all of a batch of source code (as well as all of the embedded tables, files, etc. linked in too during this whole process), it's got to be recompiled, re-linked and edited, and the executable load module re-installed
(for the modified code to be effective), at multiple locations/CPU platforms to be effective.

Yeah, right...one little application I had under me had over 1 million lines of source code, as well as approximately 100 tables, etc. One application. We had over 100,000 programs alone at SWBT-AT&T, spread over 7 different data centers. How in the hell would they even ever ID every single computer system out there? This is including the Russians too...

I think that too broad of a stroke, too much credit is given to the Russians as well as, ha ha heh, the FBI on their capabilities. SMH.
