According to one of its developers, Paul Komoszki, Benjamin is a "controlled test" of a program designed to disrupt the illegal exchange of copyrighted data and child porn over peer-to-peer networks.

"We do not want to affect the exchange of legal programs and legal music files. Only users who are looking for and sharing copyrighted files could be infected," said Komoszki in an e-mail interview today.

Yeah, I guess that's why they included the redirect to the site in germany with the pop-up ad that generated lots of cash for them; at least until their domain got killed for abuse.

I really hope these asswipes get some jail time so they can get to know " Bubba".
