Teen Author Of Blaster Variant Sentenced
The teenage author of a blaster worm variant, which infected thousands of computers, was sentenced last Friday.
According to PCWorld.com, 19-year old Jeffrey Lee Parson will serve an 18-month sentence, followed by 100 hours of community service and 3 years of a supervised release program.
"...In addition, Pechman on February 10 will determine how large a fine Parson will have to pay, according to a news release issued Friday by the U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Washington.
Parson created the W32.Blaster-B worm in August 2003, a few days after the original worm was first set loose on the Internet. He pleaded guilty to the charges in August 2004. The creator of the original worm has not been identified."
