W32.Gammima Worm Goes Into Orbit

Somehow the W32.Gammima.AG worm made its way onto the International Space Station, which goes to show how lackadaisical astronauts can be about computer security.

Billions are spent building space craft, training astronauts, and sending them back and forth into space. Yet somehow an astronaut toted a computer worm along for the ride?!? Wow!
