Blaster Internet worm defendant, 19, pleads guilty

By Kim Peterson
Seattle Times technology reporter


The Minnesota man who created a version of the Blaster Internet worm pleaded guilty yesterday in federal court in Seattle and could be sentenced in November to up to three years behind bars.
As part of his plea agreement, Jeffrey Lee Parson, 19, admitted he downloaded the original Blaster worm last August to his home computer in Hopkins, Minn., and bundled it with a "back-door" software program that allowed him to access infected computers. He then transmitted the program onto the Internet.
