Seeing as this is a 'worm' which sends itself to people in the infected person's Contact List, Victims *would* know the people who are sending the worm to them...

Therefore, your advice at the end of this article does not seem like the best possible advice to give...especially for non tech-savvy.

'Users on Skype should not install, or click on any links from users they do not already know.'

Should be more like, 'Users should not be installing anything, or clicking on any links from *ANYONE*, especially people they do not already know'.

Just thought I'd point that out....Interesting article though.
