If this is not a hoax, it is worrying news...
BUT the story is very vague, referring to unidentified 'secury experts' that had obviously contacted BBC News Online directly before publishing any details of their findings in security-related bulletins... and BBC's comment sounds odd and uninformed to say the least:
"It's definitely an accident from Morpheus' side, probably a worm. This is very dangerous."
If there is anything real to it, we should know in a few days from more reliable sources.
